Writers Group Reading

The Cape Meares Writers Group held the third annual public reading of their work on July 23, 2026. The reading was our way to share selected pieces written during the nine-week series of meetings under the guidance of Cape Meares writer, Butch Freedman. Ten writers read their original stories ranging from fiction to memoir and autobiography.
Readers from Cape Meares: Chris Spence, Steve Quinn, Wendy Kunklel, Wendy Burroughs, Marcille Ansorge, Peggy Lindquist, Butch Freedman. Lynn Rouske and Christine Inglis from Bay City, and Deborah Lincoln from Neskowin.
For those who were not able to attend and people who might like to read the printed version we have a few of the original pieces in the links below.
