Notice of Writers' Division Gathering on  February 26

Greetings from your Writers' Division gathering hostess and  the cats Pearl
and Brandy! You know they approve all our Writers' Division  presentation.
They really like the February one and I know you will, too.  Again, my
apologies for not joining the call in January but it seemed that  technical
difficulties plagued my phone. I had to learn how to reset it. It  sounds,
however, like you had a good call. The idea of these once a  month
gatherings is to share our projects and learn something  new.

Join us on Sunday February 26 for a presentation on Writing Our  Intension
given by Lynda Lambert. Many of you know her from past  interactions from
the list.

Lynda says: Let's call the presentation  "Writing with Intention."
I'll speak about how to become more intentional  in our writing life and
ways to get our work accomplished and out to  editors and publishers as well
as some personal ways of changing our  thoughts to maximize our efforts.

My background  information:
Professor of Fine Arts & Humanities, Geneva College,  Beaver Falls,
Pennsylvania
I live and work at my writing  in a  small village in western Pennsylvania.
I retired from my college teaching  position in 2008 , which opened the door
for me to work full-time at  writing.
My degrees are:
BFA in painting  in 1989 from  Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania
MFA in painting   in 1991 from West Virginia University
MA in English in 1994  from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania

Author of: Walking by Inner Vision:  Stories & Poems, to be published very
soon - finishing up the final  editing right now.

Eclipse, full length book of  poetry, target for publication in 2018
At 73, a one-year  memoir/journal of my 73rd year. Target publication
date,  2018.

Currently:
Retired from teaching.
Full-time writing: poems and creative non-fiction essays

articles for Vision Aware Blog on the AFB website.
Board member of Behind Our Eyes, Inc.

Walking my 2 dogs  numerous times every day, in the woods on the ridge
overlooking the  Connoquenessing Creek.

myeloid leukemia.
I live  in the small rural village where my ancestors settled  in  the
mid-1700s.

I know we are in for a wonderful presentation. If you  don't normally join
us, plan to do so. If you always join us, this will be  an unforgettable
presentation. Indeed we have some wonderful presentations  lined up for the
next four gatherings starting with this one.

is  568839. The times are as follows: 8:00 PM eastern, 7:00 PM central, 6:00
