Discussion Items and Updates:
- Consensus that Shirin Leos’ presentation on developmental editing was professional and impressive, with excellent visuals. A check has been sent to her.
- Nona’s report on the upcoming anthology: Fifty-four submissions were received, divided fairly evenly between poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. Doug received over 90 photos. He will narrow them to about twenty and submit them to Nona for further consideration.
- The next Smatch-Up theme will be “Last night…”
- Nona and Susan have agreed to co-edit the 2022 anthology.
