Networking meetup on Southbourne Beach

Jun 29, 2023
1 min read

Who would have thought that a planned networking meet-up in June would be rained off?! That didn't stop 30 writers and authors sheltering from the wind and rain - including two from Stevenage and two from Salsbury!


We still had a jolly time connecting, collaborating and getting to know each other. The next networking event for writers will be indoors!

Getting rained off the beach didn’t stop the writers from making the meetup worthwhile. Having 30 people still connect, collaborate, and share ideas despite the weather sounds like a great outcome. It’s nice to see the group keeping the networking spirit going and already planning an indoor event next time. That same willingness to keep trying also comes through in SoFlo Wheelie Life, a motorcycle game where practice helps improve balance.
