The Howes House Writers have been meeting for more than 20 years, initially under the guidance of talented Islanders Donald Nitchie, Cynthia Riggs, Shirley Mayhew, and Jeanne Hewett. More recent members, including The Times’ Valerie Sonnenthal, Ann Lees, Paul Magid, Les Holcomb, and Ellie Bates, also continue to publish in many venues. The group has edited several journals, and encourages authors of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and memoir to join them. Members provide supportive feedback on a variety of work across many genres.
New and returning members of the writing group will continue to meet weekly, every Tuesday beginning May 23, at the Up-Island Council on Aging at Howes House, State Road, West Tisbury (across from Alley’s General Store) from 11 am to 1 pm; bring a bag lunch or snacks to share.
