March 11 meeting
3-11-10 Writer Group meeting
This meeting marked the start of our summer writing project. (As yet unnamed) a play about Jesse James and his time in Killen, Alabama. We had 5 attendees, 1 who was new!
Attendees: J. Tidwell, C. Palmer, Moon Pie, **Ms. Shirley Morris**, Joan Harbin.
Opening: No old business, we immediately turned the meeting over to Jerry. He distributed 10 informational handouts of varying sizes. These were for our reading and to get us thinking how we would structure the play. The town of Killen had some specifics they want included. These are:
## Before the robbery
## The Peden Tavern
## The character of Wild Bill
## After the robbery
wrap up: Moon Pie said she sold a story about the Scottsboro Boys Museum to Affaire De Coeur, a romance book review magazine/ezine. No word yet on a publication date. The next meeting will be March 24th. At this meeting we hope to have a name for the play and a breakdown of the scenes and the run time of the entire production.
