At our meeting on February 13, 2016, Susan Emert will talk to us about the role of genealogists as writers. She will help us warm up our writing muscles so that we can start putting our genealogical discoveries into a narrative we can share with others.

To continue writing on your own after our meeting, Susan suggests participating in the Family History Writing Challenge given by genealogist Lynn Palermo. Lynn blogs at http://www.thearmchairgenealogist.com and she started her annual 28 day (or 29 day in 2016) writing challenge on February 1.

The meeting will take place from 1:30 pm-3:30 pm at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The address of the Church is 1275 Timberwood Blvd., Charlottesville, VA. It is located on the corner of Airport Road and Timberwood. Coming from U.S. 29, the entrance is on the right (north) side of Airport Road immediately before you reach the church. Drive to the back of the building where you will see the entrance to the Family History Center.

Everyone is welcome!
