[stylist] NFB Writers' Division telephone meeting

[Robert Newman]

There were four of us on the telephone meeting; a comfortable, intimate
group of Lori, Judith, Chelsea and Robert. We discussed our topic questions
of word-length and getting started as a novelist. Shared our favorite method
for composing- Lori likes hand writing it out. Robert likes keying it in on
a quarty keyboard on a deeds top computer. Chelsea likes composing in
contracted Braille, inputting into her Braille Note 32. Judith on the
computer. 
 
The next telephone meeting is March 22, Sunday at 7:30 PM Central. 
. 
The new author who I referred to as a possible guest for tonight, well read
the message below.

Robert, I apologize to you and the group, but in my enthusiasm, I
overcommitted myself this evening. I have a presentation Tuesday  morning
and its just not coming together as easily as I thought it would. I really
need to continue working on it so am not going to be able to make the
conference call. I apologize for any inconvenience.  
 
I would love to be able to participate in the next one and hope you'll  let
me know when it is.
 
Again, I apologize for having to  cancel after agreeing to do this.  I just
really  have to get what I'm working on finished up as I work from 9 am to 8
pm tomorrow and then give the presentation at 9 Tuesday morning.    
 
 
Appologetically yours,
Carmella
