[Stylist] New Blog Feature on writer

[Jacobson, Shawn D]

Linda

Can you get back issues?  I didn't put anything in this summer, and my winter/spring submission got bounced (I did it in a rush and it shows).  However, I think I've had work in seven of the previous 8 M&Ls and would like to listen if possible.

Saturday greetings and a blog feature you may enjoy today, from Lynda

 

Saturday morning is particularly important because this is the day I publish a spotlight on a Guest Author on my blog, SCAN.

I see that some of the NFB Writers Division members are also contributors to the Magnets & Ladders literary magazine. It is good to see you there in the bi-annual issues. Did you know you can get a professionally recorded cassette of each issue? Yes, and it is so amazing to hear your work read by a professional - I always feel like."Is that MY work I am listening to?"  It is always a treat to hear another person read your stories and poems, isn't it!  The cassette is created by Perkins Library, and if you contact them you can subscribe and get the cassettes free each time they are published. You can listen on your NLS player. 

 

I've been reading the Spring/Summer issue of Magnets & Ladders this week.
By reading, I mean that I am listening to the recording of that magazine on the Perkins Cassette that arrived recently.  I am now on my 2nd read-through of the stories & poems featured in the magazine. What a delightful time I am having - I am listening intently and making new discoveries  of the talented writers.  One story, "The Sweet Breath of Africa," is by Amy Bovaird. It won an Honorable Mention in the contest.  This story is so well written it is like listening to a symphony - the imagery and words are woven together masterfully.  I am happy to say that Amy is my Guest Author today on the
Blog, SCAN.   

 

You can read Amy's interview on SCAN at :

It exceeds our word count limit - but if you need for me to send you a personal copy of her interview, I am happy to do that for you.

Just E-mail me and I will send it to you privately.

I'll be working in my Magical Garden most of today - this is what I do in-between writing or creating art.  My Magical Garden is about 60 feet long
- a space I have developed this summer  that consists of beautiful plants and flowers - and pulling weeds is now my preoccupation most days.  Today, I'll be wielding my new gardening tool - a turf edger - all around the sidewalks  to create an edge that really makes it look great.  Summer is nearing to  its end,  and I want to enjoy every moment I can, outside with Nature, my Muse. Besides, it is a great way to exercise. 

Happy summer days to you today. 

Lynda
