President's message October 2024
One of our members, Bobbie Bennett writes the award-winning Beaver Valley Newsletter.
The October issue highlights Beaver Valley Days.I have a fond memory of going to a Beaver Valley Day Pancake Breakfast.
Bing Brown (he and Carol are sorely missed as APW members and human beings on the planet) was happily filling plates with pancakes and link sausages. I don't like my food to touch. Yeah, I am one of those people. Bing must have seen my face as the syrup he'd just ladled on my pancakes ran into my sausage as I quickly nudged my scrambled eggs to the side. He encouraged me to taste the sausage. “You’ll like it!” You can guess how I almost always eat sausage now. (My eggs sit on a plate alone.) I hope you make lots of fond memories this month!
If you have any writing-related announcements you would like included in an upcoming newsletter, please email them to me.
Carol Baxter, APW President

CENTRAL CHAPTER NEWS
Book Club Call for Authors: The APW book group was established to provide an opportunity for members to read, discuss, and post reviews of one another's books. We generally meet via Zoom on the fourth Saturday of every month at 10 am, September through June. It's a great way to support our journeys as authors and get to know each other.
Some people attend regularly, others not so much, or only a few times, and that's okay. We are currently looking for APW members who would like to join our group, and potentially present their book for our reviews. If interested, please contact Karen Shiffman Lateiner.
