Margie,
Wasn't that a wonderful conference! I really appreciated your talk and your presence. This group (ning) is a new venture for me. I hope I can figure out how best to use it.

Hi Margaret,
How nice to be in touch with you through yet another avenue! Hawaii seems long ago and far away, but I am still filled by the incredible stories and new friends I now carry with me. I will look forward to keeping new ties alive!

Hi Margie, Thanks for the invitation. I still have fond memories of Susan Klein's workshop up at your place in the islands. In fact, the piece that I was working on then finally saw the light of day about a year and half ago. I've got some video of it from a Fringe festival that I'm currently editing. I'm curious what happened to all the work we lived with so initmately during the retreat. Will let you know when mine gets put together. All the best, Steven
Dear MRM, Thanks very much! Upcoming activities here in Chennai, including Ruth's visit, are mentioned at http://www.storytellinginstitute.org/18.pdf . - Eric
Nice to share Thai food with you and hear about your travels. Joseph is a mind-expanding teacher. I hope I hear some reports about the conference in Hawaii next month.
Hi Margie! I haven't had a chance to stop by and say hi! You know how "busy" works! I hope you are enjoying this forum I created. It's been a little over a year and Professional Storyteller has already grown to over 850 members worldwide! The power of the web and story! Keep up your wonderful work. I hope to see you at ALA in Chicago this summer!
