Best laid plans.... Got a call today about a biopsy done on a mole a few weeks that turned out to be mildly abnormal so I will be rerouting back to NH for the beginning of next week for a quick surgical removal. Nothing serious, just inconvenient, and another wakeup call to pay attention (I have a history of two prior melanomas)and practice radical self care. I had noticed an irregularly shaped mole on my right forearm and mentioned it to my dermatologist during my recent checkup a few weeks back and brought it to her attention. The return in an easterly direction will give me another chance to visit with family members and friends.
IWWG continues to be amazing, each class requires writing and evening assignments - I really am back in college! Tomorrow evening is one of the open mike nights and I may feel brave enough to sign up and read some of my work. So exciting and stimulating to be in the presence of great playwrights, poets, novelists, screenwriters, authors of children's books, creative nonfiction, memoirs, etc. etc. This is definitely perfect timing for the push I need to start writing my book as I collect information and record interviews!

Jan, I'm really pleased that the writers' conference is going well and that you are being inspired by the company that you're keeping. I hope that the procedure is minor and there is no recurrence of such irregular moles.
Thanks Andy,
will look forward to connecting with you tomorrow,
love,
Jan
