WESTERN MICHIGAN GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY ONLINE!

The Writing Group holds supportive meetings for those genealogists who want to learn more about and exchange ideas on organizing and writing their own family history. Each meeting takes time to informally discuss questions relevant to each person's work, provide helpful, non-judgmental feedback on current writing projects, and have fun learning about each other and our research. Those who attend are encouraged to bring several copies of something they are currently working on, but it's certainly not a requirement and everyone is invited to participate in the discussion. Members include those who are just starting to write and others who have been working on their genealogy for some time. Everyone is welcome - newbies with fresh ideas, and seasoned vets whose pens have been in the trenches for some time.

We also try to have a presentation to kick our creative juices into gear. All meetings are on the third Tuesday of the month from 1:30 p.m. to 4:45 p.m.

If you plan to attend, it is required to let Sister Michael Ellen Carling know you will be there. Call her at 616-643-0208 (home), or 616-643-0225 (office) and her email address is mecarling@grdominicans.org. This gives her an estimate of the number of chairs to set up. She's also the person to call if you have any questions or need more specific directions.
