Approaching a Landmark: 296th Book Donated to Workshop Trophy Room

It was a night for num­bers during the March 3 busi­ness mee­ting of the DFW Wri­ters’ Workshop. The 2010 Workshop and Con­fe­rence bud­get were dis­cus­sed with both sho­wing in the black. Five new books were dona­ted to the Trophy Room, brin­ging the num­ber of tra­di­tio­nally published books writ­ten by DFWWW mem­bers to 296. Three new mem­bers joi­ned the group.

In other news, Gin­nie Bivona has an essay in the recently relea­sed work Hear Us Roar. A. Lee Mar­ti­nez dis­pla­yed a copy of his upco­ming book Divine Mis­for­tune. Vir­gi­nia Traweek’s alma mater selec­ted her to pro­duce a pro­mo­tio­nal maga­zine tit­led Peer Pers­pec­ti­ves.

Finally, volun­teer sign-up for the DFW Wri­ters’ Con­fe­rence begins next week. Pat Haul­dren and Carolyn William­son are loo­king for volun­teers for the regis­tra­tion table and class moni­tors respectively.
