ADDED WORKSHOP-

Writers who want to explore the city if Saint Augustine, Florida are invited for a walking  exercise workshop, sponsored by Jane’s Stories Press Foundation, on   Friday, November 6, 2009, from 2:40 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Guides for  “A   Writing Adventure in St. Augustine” will point out some of the city’s   sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and textures along a route that begins   at Seville and King Streets, stretches from the Plaza to the Oldest   House, and returns to the Plaza via Cordova Street. The workshop  focuses on adding sensory details to characters and settings, requires  a fee of $25.00, and is limited to twelve participants.

Parts of the tour will be led by Glenda Bailey-Mershon, Leny  
Kaltenekker, and Kimmy van Kooten, who will help writers envision the  
city during various historical periods from the pre-European through  
the Civil Rights eras. Along the way, walkers will take brief rests to  
jot down impressions on a chart, with a longer stop scheduled at the  
garden of the Oldest House, before returning to Flagler via streets  
traveled in another time by St. Augustine’s civil rights  
demonstrators, with narration by Barbara Vickers.  A follow-up  
exercise will entail making a story web. Alternative arrangements will  
be made for those with disabilities. Participants should bring water,  
sunscreen and umbrellas, as appropriate.

Jane’s Stories Press Foundation is a nonprofit organization that  
encourages diversity among women writers and the inclusion of many  
voices in the publishing industry.

Jane’s Stories Press Foundation will also host a two-part workshop  
called “Getting Into Print: How to get your work out there,” on  
November 7, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. and from 2:30 p.m. to 4:00  
p.m, as part of the Other Words Conference at Flagler College, co-
sponsored by Jane’s Stories, Flagler’s Writers-in-Residence program,  
and the Florida Literary Arts Coalition. The Other Words conference is  
being funded in part by a grant from the St. Johns County Tourism  
Council and the St. Johns County Cultural Council.
