The Writers’ Salon met five times this year past, gathering food writers, travel writers, translators, poets, journalists, novelists and others together to talk and enjoy each other’s company. With the New Year here, we are looking forward to meeting again, this time on January 18th, in Kita Kamakura as always.

As we come together to welcome in the year, why don’t we ask each other about our writerly plans for next twelve months. (Please note, I avoided using the word “resolutions.”) As always, this is a get-together of working writers, published authors, bloggers, journalists, editors, book reviewers, all those for whom writing is central to their lives. We gather to check in on how the writing is going, talk about what’s happening in the publishing world, and share talk of the travails of a writer’s routine. This is an opportunity to catch up with old friends, connect with new people, share your recent accomplishments, and talk about what you’re working on at present. This is not a writing critique group, but a simple gathering of writers taking a break from work. Potluck and BYOB. Non-members welcome.
