All of you wonderful beings of light~ It is so wonderful to hear the stirrings of new growth, new beginnings. I support you and will stay awake with any idea of co-creating a new reality. Our heaven on earth. Funny, the things that you speak of "a book and retreats " have been deep on my mind since the fall. I was with you there in spirit.

I am not sure of my skills as a writer but I am sure of my love and the support I have to offer. I have been focused on storytelling and the communication that has been lost by not sharing our stories. Well here it is a new way to share our stories. What once was shared over a open fire or around a kitchen table is now shared via internet and chapters in books. Both equally important and a sign of their times. The important part is the passing along of the message not the medium.

Love to all of your blessed hearts! There is nothing that we can not co-create from a place of love, compassion and dignity.......followed up with a little wisdom and you got a best seller:).

Thank you for staying awake within the dream.

Calling our Evolutionary Women:

You are invited to Write a Book with us.

That’s right. At the October, 2007 EW retreat in Baltimore, a book was born. A core group has spent the last few months preparing for this launch and now we’re ready. Here’s the story.

During the retreat, one of the women, Karen Porter, was enthusiastically moved to say “We should write An Evolutionary Woman’s Guide to Life!” and conveniently enough, another woman, Christine Kloser, stood up and said, “I’m a publisher and I’ll publish it!” Wild Applause!!!!

Since then, Karen, Andrea, Bonnie, Lucky and Christine have been working out the details. The biggest one is that it will be written by YOU.

The name of the book: Conscious Choices: An Evolutionary Woman’s Guide to Life.

It will be a book of writings from Evolutionary Women. There will be 40 entries in 5 subject areas. Every woman who has attended an Evolutionary Women retreat is invited to submit a 1500 word piece.

We are having a teleconference about the book on January 22, (details below). If you can’t make the call you will be able to listen to a recording of the call. We will have another teleconference on January 29th for more discussion and clarification.

A very brief overview of the process:

January: Informational teleconferences

February: All interested writers will submit a 250 word summary of their article, due 2/22.

Support teleconferences for potential writers

March: Writers selected and 1500 word articles due by April 30.

Support teleconferences continue

April: 1500 word article due 4/30.

May-June: Editing, formatting etc.
