A big thank you to everyone who came out for our first Hoot of the season. The writing prompts got the creative juices flowing and we enjoyed good camaraderie in sharing our writings. Thanks, as always, to the fantastic staff at Salvatore's Riverwalk in Lawrence.
Be on the lookout for our next Hoot Workshop in November.
