Pictures from July, 2004

Strange Horizons Workshop

First, always, the setting.  Imagine walking along the misty beach, cool waves lapping at your toes, your mind spinning through a plot problem with the rush and roar of the ocean a  backdrop to your own creativity.
Drawing in, to the immediate surroundings.  Here is the workshop house, and the characters, er...writers, waving at you in a friendly fashion.

This picture is from the last day, after the long evenings filled with talk, the afternoon critique circle, after bonds have been formed.

The full cast of characters, except Mary Anne, who is cleverly taking pictures rather than posing for them.

Front row: Brenda and Dawn

Next: Jay, Brian, Diana, and Mark

Last, Jason, Jason, and Harry

 

Yep - we had a plateful of Jasons

 

Working in the sunshine, discussing theme, drinking cold coke.

And last, always, setting.  The stones and beach-grass and wild strawberry garden.
