Wondering what to do with those OTHER Tuesdays? Writers love to read, too.
What we think of other writers' work becomes part of our own work. Let's discuss.

For these alternate-Tuesday meetings, if they're successful, one or two people will
bring a short story or 10-minute passage they want to discuss, and after we read them,
we will have plenty of time to discuss them in detail.

I'm not sure how long each discussion will go on so I'll bring a few things myself this time, and see how many naturally end up being about right.

I'm planning:
* Short story by Saki
* TVTropes website highlights

The TVTropes website ( http://tvtropes.org/... ) should be a common cultural currency among writers in my opinion. I think a "Trope of the Week" as a semi-regular feature would be fun! Check it out...
