The season is still in full swing as the lively conversations following the phobia challenge and other events last Alphaday clearly show. I\u2019m probably repeating myself when I say that while our common focus is our interest in writing, as individuals we\u2019re such a varied bunch that our opinions often differ widely. As a result it can give us as much pleasure to disagree as to agree. It would be quite boring if we didn\u2019t have people expressing their views freely to see how others react. As somebody said, we\u2019re in a safe zone where everybody\u2019s point of view matters and we enjoy listening to the variety that\u2019s so amicably engendered in this lively group of ours.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s agenda shows signs of trailing off. Our Alpha team has nevertheless prepared the following items which I believe will provide you with both enjoyment and food for thought:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This bulletin from me<\/li>\n<li>The results of the humorous challenge from CCG<\/li>\n<li>The Writers\u2019 Reads compilation from Morgen<\/li>\n<li>The Log from Sally<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Alpha is strong and full of enthusiasm and eagerness to discuss any aspect of writing. We want to give and receive help where we can and encourage the talent that\u2019s lurking in our members. We all have our strengths (and perhaps some of those other things as well) and by pooling them together we get wiser and above all we motivate and stimulate the writerly spirit in us all.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The end of season party, our last Alphaday, will be in a fortnight\u2019s time on the 26<sup>th<\/sup> of May. No deadlines for that one\u2026 except for me!<\/p>\n<p>Christine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Alphas, Welcome to Alphaday 12.
