Warrah writers launch their second book

19 Nov, 2009 09:07 AM
POETRY, prose and prayers were recited at the launching of the Warrah Writers second anthology, Pages, on the weekend.

Launched at St Pauls Anglican Church Hall the anthology is a collection of diverse works written by the Warrah Writers who cover an area from Scone to Quirindi and many come from around Murrurundi.

The Warrah Writers have been meeting for eight years and take turns coordinating the subjects for the writing classes which are held on the second Tuesday of every month.

There are currently 18 members, but new members are always welcome.

Pages was officially launched by Upper Hunter Shire councillor Pam Seccombe who spoke of her own writing experience and what it meant to her as well as about the Warrah Writers and their book.

“It’s a lot more than a piece of paper,” Cr Seccombe said about the anthology.

“The writer has this beautiful image in their head that they put into beautiful works that we take enjoyment in,” she said.

Cr Seccombe said she believed everyone had the potential ability to write but the trick was to tap into that potential.

“I think what we have here is a wonderful example how to do it,” she said.

“It is in the class typically that gives the inspiration to write.”
