I belong to three writers groups for the purpose of improving my writing in English. The best is the Winnipeg Freelancers, where we read and critique our pieces. Eight Pieces, in the Books pages, was produced by the 'Freelancers,' which has a few of my submissions. The second is the Kings Point Writers Club, located in Florida, where I have been fortunate to spend my winters. We do the same as in my Winnipeg group. Some of these pieces were writings practices to improve my English. I hope you will be forgiving me for trying to produce a few literary values.
