Subject: Fwd: August Derleth Young Writer's Workshop

We have 46 copies of THE IRREGULARS STRIKE AGAIN from the Steve/Sim series.  Since these are 3rd through 6th graders, that would make the most sense if we handed out 24 copies along with an ADS brochure (I still have a handful of them left which I found when I did the most recent book inventory).  Otherwise, we could hand out copies of A DERLETH COLLECTION (we have over 400 copies of those, as well as REMEMBERING DERLETH) but those likely wouldn't be of as much interest to the kids.  We also have over 200 copies of ATMOSPHERE OF HOUSES, but again, not likely to interest the kids.

My suggestion is to hand out THE IRREGULARS STRIKE AGAIN and use the other books as incentives to increase our membership.  In fact, since we may be increasing the dues, a copy of one of these books should be an automatic benefit to joining the Society!

This may require a vote from the Board since it does involve an 'expenditure' of more than $100.00 (24 X $6.00 (our cost) = $144.00.

Will you be bringing any AD books to give away.  We can hold a drawing at the end of the day and give away books if you let me know how many you might bring.  We can give away 6, 12, 24...  Let me know.

Dear Linda,

Thank you very much for the quick reply!  I have forwarded this to our new President, Tracy Heron, with an invitation for him to join me in the classroom.  Recently the interim Mayor of Mayville, Wisconsin, Tracy has brought great energy to the August Derleth Society and is interested in seeing how our activities among the schools are working.

I have enjoyed teaching the Personal Narrative and have already come up with an idea for the kids to work on during their session.  Looking forward to meeting everyone on May 23rd!

Best,

James

Yes, we are holding our August Derleth Young Writer's Workshop on May 23rd at UW Baraboo.  I have attached our agenda for the day and also a sectional leader's list.  Let me know if the sectional I put you in to teach is okay with you.  You have a teacher assigned to assist you with that sectional, too.

Dear Linda and Georgine,

Are either of you still involved in the August Derleth Young Writer's Workshop?  Will there be a workshop this year at the UW-Baraboo?  If so, has a date been set?  I have had a great time the past three years with the kids and look forward to doing it again this year.  I am happy to report that the August Derleth Society has undergone a reorganization and revitalization under new leadership and we are committed to continuing and expanding on our efforts to promote writing among the youth of Sauk Prairie and surrounding communities.  We have also enlisted a new publisher and intend to make August Derleth books available on e-readers very soon.  Look for news of our very special 'Derleth Dinner' event coming in the Fall!

With every good wish,

James P. Roberts
Secretary
August Derleth Society

P. S.  I plan to be at the Sauk Prairie Scholarship Awards ceremony to hand out the August Derleth $250.00 scholarship on May 8th.  Hope to see you there!
