Six individuals sat facing each other in the South Meeting Room.

“Welcome everyone,” said Christina Ritchie, president of the Prairie Pens writing group. “Now we always do what we love doing – our seven-minute free write where everybody just writes something on the lovely word of snow: a poem, short story, whatever you want.”

This was the opening few minutes of the February meeting of the Prairie Pens writing group at the Moose Jaw Public Library on Saturday.
