omen's Business Institute. Currently I am the leader of both a local Book Chat and Writer's Circle. In Book Chat we discuss varieties of what we have read. (Not everyone reads the same book. We read and report back on what we have read to others.) The Writer's Circle began 2003 years ago as just people interested in writing. It has evolved into more. We share what we have written and welcome feed back. Several of our members are published authors, news writers for local newspapers, and magazine story authors for various clients. We welcome anyone interested in writing or reading in any form. I am now an author. "Find a Penny: A Financial Journey" and "S.O.S: Series of Occasionally Scary short stories." ,"Hidden" , "Puzzled" "By Chance or Choice- Destiny Calls" and recently "Guilty and Innocent" Self published on Amazon.com. Hope all is well with everyone.

When we freely use the wisdom acquired over the years to give thanks in all things, sorrows flee more quickly, joy is a daily guest, and growth is inevitable.
