The Oscoda Writers Group is a friendly group that welcomes anybody that loves to write. Meetings start with reading aloud stories, poems, and personal essays on a common subject chosen the previous week; the members then offer helpful comments rather than criticism of each other’s work. Short impromptu writing exercises usually follow, but at times discussions erupt and the time seems to evaporate as member engage in lively conversations.
