At the MRWG's AGM we saw a new leadership step up as Louise (Coordinator) and Clare (Treasurer) stepped down. Elvina (new coordinator) and Angela (new treasurer) took up the roles. A huge thank you to those stepping down for their service and a big welcome to the new office bearers. One member, Neila Todd wrote the following account of her experience.
The doubts creep in as to where we are heading. Change is a silent blindfold; to make us all start shaking at the thought of being out of our comfort zone.
Meeting up with fellow members had the feelings warm and unit to a collective feeling from all, towards good.
As the as the meeting began the first few words were revising the past year which was looked on as a positive by all. The few blurs that may have marred the 100% were small, showing a positive year overall.
The voting had all new panel of members slip quickly into their seats and take charge of proceedings. Thanking those leaving their positions with true gratitude for their input by wonderful gifts mark the occasion; showing how they were truly treasured by all.
A new broom sweeps clean. So, after lunch the brain storming for a new format was put forward. The whiteboard being used as a collector of ideas; with the most popular being accountability for one’s self of your personnel game plan.
Further thoughts emerged that united the fellow members of The Melbourne Romance Writers Group community and showed that our organisation would continue working with us; to support romance, and all writers to publication and beyond for every individual member.
After a whip around for these ideas the enthusiasm in the room could be felt; lifting our dreams to succeed. Trepidation had slipped by the wayside; with feeling high that this will emerge as a very positive year for all members.
It was felt by all at the meeting that these changes, backed by each individual’s continual work will have us all putting forward pages for critiquing. This will bring us more positive outcomes and closer to our goals of publication.
We will all remain proud to be members of the community of the Melbourne Romance Writers Gould.
Thank you to all for such a positive outcome.
