Writing Group

IGSI Minnesota has started a writing group and would like to suggest that you start a group in your area. IGSI will send you a list of members who live in your area so you can contact them. Then IGSI will provide you with how to go about having a group of your own. Learn how to write stories about your ancestors, tricks to share the group leadership and we will also help with the communication of the group.
