March Bulletin Deadline: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27 April Bulletin Deadline: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24 Please submit all Bulletin articles by these dates to: communications@ womansclub.org The Writers Do you feel lethargic during these long, cold winter months? Our Chair, Cathryn Olson, often stimulates our writing by giving us a topic and 10 minutes to write. When the time is up, I am surprised by how much I have written and the latent ideas which came forth. Sometimes I apply the ten-minute rule to tasks I can’t seem to get done such as organizing the sweater shelves in my closet. There is some satisfaction in finding that gray cashmere cardigan under a pile of hurriedly-tossed garments I hadn’t bothered to fold when I put them away. “I thought I had left it some place, and here it is!” That ten minutes can turn into an hour of organizing the rest of the closet. Another day, I will put my spices in alphabetical order; that really can be done in 10 minutes. Writing is what we are all about, and nothing stimulates that activity more than reading. After finishing a novel, take 10 minutes to analyze how the author kept you involved. How did she organize her material? Go back and read her descriptions, her dialogues, and her characterizations. When did you start empathizing with the protagonist and thinking, “I know how that feels.”? Perhaps you will convince yourself that you can do some significant writing. Sit down at your computer or find that legal pad and a pen. Start writing. — Norma Thomson, Scribe Save The Date FASHION BLOOMS A Woman’s Club Spring Fashion Show APRIL 9, 2016 10:00 am – 2:00 pm Brunch, Vendor Marketplace, Raffles and Spring Fashion Show Sponsorship opportunities available For more information, please contact Kat Menaged at [email protected] Book Groups MYSTERY BOOK GROUP Meets the first Friday of every month at 10:00 am.
