July Meeting a Big Hit

We had 16 entries in our short story contest and they are in the hands of the judges.  Our presentation was by Christine Granados about her career as a writer.  It definitely made me want to read her books.  Her story about the ups and downs of writing and the perseverance required to be published was much appreciated by the members of the Conference.  Following we had a panel discussion with "Lucky" Lindy Segall and Hans Bauer about screenwriting and movie making was not what I expected; it may even be trickier than writing for publication in print.

We will announce the winners of the short story contest when we have them.  Meanwhile, if you have ideas for a speaker for our next program (August or September) please let us know.  We also put together a board of directors to work with future programming.
