Writers' Night Out: Social/networking evening
Our periodic gatherings are at the Tavern in the Square in Central Square, Cambridge, on Mondays between 6 and 8 p.m. You can meet and chat with NWU colleagues in a fun,
relaxed atmosphere, where you can buy tasty, reasonably priced
nibbles and drinks and take a break from the computer (or pencil and
pad or papyrus scroll). Next date is March 15.
Union social events are always a pleasant "gathering of the tribes"--a place
where people truly relate to each other's tales of the joys and terrors of
the writing life. Our last several get-togethers were fun for all, and some useful networking actually happened.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Please note that this event is at the Tavern in the Square in Central Square −
NOT the one in Porter Square. It's at 730 Massachusetts Avenue, right in the square.
