The writers’ meeting tonight was a bit of a bust. I went hoping to meet some writers and talk about writing. The meeting consisted of a woman giving a presentation for a documentary film she’s making and asking for people to set up presentations so she can ask for funding.
The film is about the sexplotation of young girls in America and how these girls need to be treated like victims instead of criminals. That was bad enough, but when one woman started talking about how Rick Sanatorium is going to ‘bring back morality in America,’ I was about ready to gag. If the meeting hadn’t been almost over, I’d have gotten up and walked out.
I did meet one woman with whom I hit it off. We exchanged emails. We are also going to attend next Monday’s critique meeting. Maybe it will be more what I’m looking for.
