Various “tricks of the [writing] trade” are offered and experimented with. The end result is at least one “polished” piece of writing, three or four first drafts and a burning desire to write more!
Anais Nin renowned diarist once said “ We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospection . . .we write to teach ourselves and to speak to others . . .when I don’t write I feel my world shrinking” Thus – Lifewriting.
Please note: The session will run only if numbers warrant. Approximately ten participants make a lively group. If numbers do not support such a situation “Lifewriting I” will be re-offered in the *fall 2010*.

Ted will explore how the history of Saudi Arabia, and of its relations with the United States, may provide some insight into the rise of Al Qaeda terrorism and the attacks of 9/11. Over a period of 60 years, policy decisions which seemed to be good ideas at the time, sometimes resulted in unintended, and far-reaching, consequences. Ted was Canadian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia from 1996 to 2000.

EarthDream Film Festival In homes, in workplaces, in coffee shops and schools, in churches and marketplaces on the South Shore, discussions flourish. The talk is of climate change and energy, farms, fish, our ocean, sustainability and lifestyle. A growing number of beautifully enlightening films that reflect these themes, and few opportunities to view them, prompted the South Shore Chapter of the Council of Canadians to launch this, the first documentary film festival of its kind on the South Shore of Nova Scotia. The EarthDream Film Festival answers a need in this community, not just for the valuable insights these films provide, but also as inspiration for further individual and group action.
Special thanks to partners Cinema Politica and the Ecology Action Centre.
Free Admission: Donations welcome.
