The event you've
waited one whole year for....
The 2nd Annual
Summer Solstice Workshop (and AGM) is scheduled for SATURDAY, JUNE
14th from 9:30 am to 4 pm at the CARDEL THEATRE.
THIS YEAR's GUEST
SPEAKERS: CJ CARMICHAEL and BARB DUNLOP
Here's how the
day will unfold:
9:30-10:00 Figure
out how to get the coffee urn to work. Cram your potluck dish in
the overcrowded fridge. Drop your Food Bank donation into likely
box. Talk, hug, hug, talk.

notes on pacing and characterization.
2:45 RUSH to
grab coffee, queue at the one washroom. RUSH BACK for ....
3:00 AUTHORS
PANEL. All attending authors will take the stage to field questions
from the audience. I'll moderate it again, and am resolved not to
put up with any pink-shirted guests badmouthing it as happened last
year.
4:00 WRAP-UP,
CLEAN-UP, HEAD OUT.
Like last year,
everyone attending is invited to bring one guest interested in writing
and/or CARWA. And throughout the day, watch out for the lovely Lauren
Hawkeye and her bag of goodies.
AND like last
year, the event is free to all members and guests. BE SURE your membership
has been renewed before then. Registration need only be a head count.
NOTE: At the beginning
of June, watch the CaRWA e-mail loop for a notice for registration.
DON'T register till then.
Hope you can
all make it out!
