| ease in writing? |
"Ease in writing" comes from a poem by Alexander Pope, the British poet:
True ease in writing comes from art, not chance, As those move easiest who have learn'd to dance. Note he (and I) didn't say "easy writing." But just as dance lessons can help get you around the floor more gracefully, the goal for this newsletter is to share a tip or two to improve your writing. Recipient of a 2011 Constant Contact All Star Award.

ALIVE
 This year, I worked on several projects related to nutrition, social mobility, and access to health care. It's important to document, advocate, and generally make these issues more widely known.
But I was the writer/editor--I was not directly, for example, ensuring someone had enough food to last the month. So it occurred to me that a small thing I could do was to donate a percentage of my earnings to ALIVE, a community-based organization in Alexandria.
Thanks for your support this year to allow me to have the resources to do so. |
