Linn, Oregon. I believe it had just formed. They have a lot going on. When I was writing a column for the Port Orchard Independent I attend a chapter in Bremerton, Washington. I later, received a handwritten invitation from their president to attend a party for one of their members - Debbie Macomber. I was so sad I was unable to attend (1987). I have been bless to meet many wonderful created people over the years.</p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 28px; font-weight: 700;">Pacific Northwest Writers Association</span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36438446.post-77060146790942938642020-11-09T20:17:00.000-08:002020-11-09T20:17:21.340-08:00Event: Chicago Women in Publishing<p><a href="https://www.cognitoforms.com/ChicagoWomenInPublishing/CWIPSocialLetsWrite"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #65676b; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">https://www.cognitoforms.com/ChicagoWomenInPublishing/CWIPSocialLetsWrite</span></a></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36438446.post-46073258834072663972020-11-07T17:08:00.000-08:002020-11-07T17:08:40.209-08:00<p> </p><br /><p><span dir="ltr" style="animation-name: none !important; background-color: white; color: #65676b; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; transition-property: none !important;"></span></p><div class="nc684nl6" style="animation-name: none !important; display: inline; font-family: inherit; transition-property: none !important;"><a class="oajrlxb2 g5ia77u1 qu0x051f esr5mh6w e9989ue4 r7d6kgcz rq0escxv nhd2j8a9 nc684nl6 p7hjln8o kvgmc6g5 cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x jb3vyjys rz4wbd8a qt6c0cv9 a8nywdso i1ao9s8h esuyzwwr f1sip0of lzcic4wl oo9gr5id gpro0wi8 lrazzd5p" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/illustratorsandwriters/?__cft__[0]=AZUfxO65VwLi6E_OdrkWbOPZr_8iaZg1XvUuX_6mTkJVhvzI7rBwjtQZ1xyKzGN7V94hoZJHDGfRmV1Z1PPL9iP1tMEOU7ZgSRfvMKGTb4aAYoCJoHubatf6-_JwAPxua4UsQZ_bczzol0tY2oKz32cGmiiatT4gm-DcriRetsjOt_FXxBmB0rKDaiPWQqENvfY&__tn__=-UC%2CP-R" role="link" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; animation-name: none !important; background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; border-style: initial; border-width: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; display: inline; font-family: inherit; font-weight: 600; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-align: inherit; touch-action: manipulation; transition-property: none !important;" tabindex="0"><span style="animation-name: none !important; font-family: inherit; transition-property: none !important;">Children's Writer's & Illustrator's Market</span></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36438446.post-56275663118490087112020-11-07T05:38:00.003-08:002020-11-07T05:38:34.373-08:00Y'all A Southern Magazine.<p><a href="https://yall.com/arts-and-culture/shoebox-love-southern-original/"> https://yall.com/arts-and-culture/shoebox-love-southern-original/</a></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36438446.post-85906221557537478712020-10-10T10:45:00.004-07:002020-10-10T10:45:58.067-07:00Submissions Open<p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/submissions"> https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/submissions</a></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
