Happy New Year

Welcome 2020!

It is hard to believe that Winter Street Writers is turning seven years old this month! We would like to thank the Beverly Public Library for continuing to allow us to use their facility as our home base. We would also like to thank our 575 followers on our Facebook Page who continue to read and comment on our humble little blog, We hope you all continue to follow us.

Gail Balentine has had a busy 2019! After finishing writing her first novel and researching different avenues in publishing, we are thrilled that in July, Harmony in Winslet became available on Amazon in print and e-book form. She has been learning the ins and outs of marketing and promoting her novel and was recently featured in the Museum Enrichment Series at the Lynn Museum and Historical Society.  We can't wait to find out what is in store for Jane Harmony in Gail's next novel.

Lauraine Lombara's  poem Italian Poppy was recently paired with a photograph by Law Hamilton in the exhibit In Your Mother's Tongue; A Word and Image Dialogue at the Griffin Museum of Photography. You can read Lauraine's poem and see Law's photo here: 

Beth Walsh continues to be the administrator of the Winter Street Writer blog and Facebook page. She is enjoying her new role as the Site Manager for the Meals on Wheels program for the City of Beverly and the senior lunch program for Beverly Council on Aging.

A new year is always cause for reflection. The start of a new decade makes us ponder what lies ahead for us long term. What changes will we see in the world of technology, our environment, local and world politics and the arts by 2030? Here's to the new year (and decade) ahead. May it be happy, healthy and creative!
