The Northwest Ohio Writers' Forum (NWOWF) holds its next monthly meeting Saturday, October 17, 2009, from 10 am to noon, at the Sylvania Branch Library, 6749 Monroe St., in Sylvania.

Toledo Free Press editor Michael Miller will talk about how to conduct effective interviews. Whether you’re a freelance journalist (or want to be), a fiction writer conducting research for your next novel, or a memoirist mining for nuggets for your personal story, learning how to interview is a valuable skill. Michael also self-published a collection of his editorials called, Lighting the Fuse…it’s a book with its own story!

All meetings of the Northwest Ohio Writers' Forum are open to the public.  Additional information about meetings and membership can be found at www.nwowf.com.
