Also, after my last Library Update I had a note from our new writer in residence, Diane Schuller...

"I'm also available to all the libraries and all writers in the entire Peace region. If a library or community group would like me to visit, please contact Anna Scott 532-3580, ext 234 or ascott@gppl.ab.ca

Also, if anyone would like to have a personal one-on-one consultation with me they can email me at dianeschuller@gmail.com

I hope to be able to help as many writers and aspiring writers in the region as possible! I really appreciate what you're doing with your blog."


Well, thanks Diane - I appreciate you sharing your talents with the Peace Country! If you'd like to fine out more about Diane and her work you can also check out her website at www.DianeSchuller.com.
