The Power Of Words - Last Day To Vote For Amnesty International Film

I'm in a rush, just want to post this fantastic film on the power of words. If you read this today, April 29, 2010, you can still vote for this Webby nomination and propel it to "the best of the web" in the Public Service and Activism catagory.

Get Happy Video About Abraham-Hicks Teachings Makes Me Smile

I took a break from working on the May 2010 newsletter to listen to an inspirational broadcast on Hay House Radio. (Hay House is the number one publisher of self-help and new thought titles.) I heard a very interesting broadcast and that led me to check out the website of Abraham-Hicks. There I found a link to the video below.

Books by Esther and Jerry Hicks may not be your cup of tea, but they are very successful authors and workshop presenters who have been teaching that we create our own reality through our thoughts since 1986. I just recently discovered them and this video (made by an admirer of their teachings) which I absolutely love. It leaves me smiling every time I watch it. I hope it does the same for you.

2010 London One Act Festival Concludes

L.O.A.F. concluded on Sunday, at a 4 p.m. awards presentation at the Black Shire Pub.

I saw all ten plays, having attended on the three nights during which the adjudicator, Bernard Hopkins, gave feedback (Thursday, Friday and Saturday), and really enjoyed the festival.

For a recap of the awards, see my post on the London Playwright's Blog.

Back to Blogging!

Back when I rebuilt the LondonWritersSociety.ca website I really wanted to create a wordpress blog in which I would have more options in regard to function and design.

Ever the unrealistic optimist in regard to how much I can get done, I took the link to this blog off the website. Of course then I stopped adding posts as well.

Long story short: I haven't had time to create the blog I envisioned. Worse yet, it's been nearly eighteen months since I wrote a post on this one.

Yet during that time I would have so liked to comment on dozens of literary events that might have been of interest to other writers.

So I give. I'm going back to this blog, and putting the link to it back on the website until such time that I actually have another blog in place.

Now: back to working on the May 2010 LWS newsletter!
