Kevin’s Accolade

Congratulations to Writers’ Circle member and author Kevin Brooke who is recognised as an inspiration to others in the local press (we already know he’s an inspiration!) He does wonderful work with young writers and has encouraged many to express their creativity and enter competitions such as the Rotary Young Writer Competition. The Rotary Club of Pershore were delighted with the entries they received following Kevin’s input.

The same article appeared in many local papers, but, in case you missed it, to see what Hereford Times, Worcester News and the Daily Echo reported click here.

Our Chairman would like to share this information with the Circle:

The .pdf, downloadable by clicking the link: The-NW-1, is a new magazine.  It is published by a woman in the US, Shaunta Grimes, who runs all sorts of classes and groups on the web.  She is so productive that Rod sometimes wonders if she is six people!

She recently set up a Patreon subscription and one of the things she is offering to her membership is this magazine, subs start at $3 (about £2.40). Rod sent a submission for the first issue and was accepted. You can see it in the .pdf above. Rod’s is four from the end. Congratulations to Rod.

She says the contibutors will be paid. You can see her website at: https://www.patreon.com/ninjawriters
