Hard to find time to take a breath, but I’m thrilled to be able to report on exciting news about Barnes & Noble. I hope you’ve had a chance to visit the Lake Sumter Barnes & Noble store over the last few weeks. We’ve developed a mutually beneficial relationship with the store that’s allowed us to feature eight of our authors thus far. Managing and nurturing this relationship has been time-consuming. It’s also incredibly gratifying to see our talented local authors featured in the store. Our first event ended on April 23rd and featured WWII-themed books. A total of 27 books were sold. Our current two-week event featuring thriller and crime novels ends on May 7. The kickoff get together for this event was a phenomenal success! Initial inventory of books by Mel Harrison, Phyllis Walters, J.J. Clarke and Ann Heathman sold out quickly and had to be replenished twice. See more about Barnes & Noble, incuding pictures, starting on the next page. There will be a two-week hiatus, so our next book display at Barnes & Noble will begin on May 28th and will feature memoirs. Stay tuned for more info. Participation is restricted to WLOV members. This is just one of the many benefits of membership. General Meetings: April 14th meeting: Turn-out for Becca Syme’s insightful workshop on Seven Productivity Myths and Why You Should Stop Believing Them was the highest we’ve had for a Zoom meeting. Becca provided a link for access to her presentation slides which I’ve shared on our Facebook page (It’s also on our website). May 12th meeting: Shutta Crum, author, storyteller, keynote speaker and educator, will present: “Oh those Voices–Finding your Writer’s Voice.” Don’t miss it! Check out the FWA blog for more info about this very important topic for all writers: https://floridawriters.blog/oh- those-voices-part-1. SUMMER HIATUS – There won’t be any meetings – or newsletters - in June and July. However, we are not folding our tents and stealing away to the beach. Your Board will still be working hard. July 24-31 we will be holding our online Beach Book Bonanza (see page 6). Throughout June and July we will be accepting your stories and poems for our September 30th SCARY MUSINGS event. Information about how to submit your work for this event is provided on page 4, and will also be sent out via email. When next we meet again it will be IN PERSON! I’m looking forward to seeing all of you at the Laurel Manor Recreation Center on August 11th at 9 am. New Year’s Resolution Member Challenge: Don’t forget my New Year’s Resolution Member Challenge. Go to https://writersleagueofthevillages.com, select a book from one of your talented fellow WLOV authors, read the book and write an Amazon review. I just finished reading Mel Harrison’s exciting thriller, The Ambassador is Missing (book two of the Alex Boyd series) 5 and I’m in the middle of Dick Stoebel’s enjoyable memoir, I’m Almost History. I highly recommend both of them and will be writing reviews soon. New Book? If you’ve released a new book, please remember to forward the pertinent information to Paula Howard at [email protected] for inclusion on the website. I welcome your ideas and comments. Please contact me either at my personal email at [email protected] or at [email protected]. Stay safe. Happy writing. Rita GET READY FOR JULY BEACH BOOK BONANZA!

  • Season's Greetings from Saint Mary's!
    Season's Greetings from Saint Mary's! A Message from Grandparent Co-Chairs Mary Jane Jenkins and Vicky McKenzie Armes '62C As co-chairs for Saint Mary's grandparents and grandfriends Annual Fund campaign, we are excited to share this edition of our quarterly e-newsletter, which was created especially for grandparents and grandfriends of our Saint Mary's girls. To kick off the holiday season, click this link (or the image to the right) to watch the YouTube video of the 40th annual Lighting O' the Grove, which was livestreamed on Nov. 19, 2020. There is a full schedule of performances to help celebrate the holiday season and the video is about 53 minutes long. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! This year’s comprehensive 2020-2021 reopening plan was designed to safely deliver in-person learning for most of the fall while eliminating travel between home and school during the holidays as the COVID-19 virus surged nationwide. Thus, after the Thanksgiving break and following three months of successful in-person learning from September through November, Saint Mary’s students and faculty began three weeks of virtual learning and community activities that will last until the Christmas break begins Dec. 18. The 2020-2021 academic calendar, which is adapted to navigate the pandemic while continuing to deliver an excellent educational program, calls for students and faculty to return for in-person learning in January with the continuation of our extensive COVID protocols which worked so well this fall. However, they will begin the spring semester again with virtual learning, prior to coming back to campus safely.

  • Bridging the Gap Between Opera and Musical Theatre
    The Crossover Opera Singer: Bridging the Gap Between Opera and Musical Theatre D.M.A. DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Keyona Willis-Lynam, M.M Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2015 D.M.A. Document Committee: J. Robin Rice, Advisor Joe Duchi Kristine Kearney Copyright by Keyona Willis-Lynam 2015 Abstract For decades, a divide has existed between opera and musical theatre, with the lesser value being placed upon the latter. Singers, from the start of their training, are told to choose a genre if one wants to achieve any type of singing success. This type of division creates a chasm of isolation and misunderstanding between the musical styles. From academia, to the stage, to the concert goer, one’s allegiance to opera versus musical theatre has been built upon a firm foundation of contrast, without acknowledging that both genres have ties to one another. As a result, most teaching of singing is done from the perspective of the classical singing style, with little to no mention of how to efficiently and healthily sing in a musical theatre style. In today’s social and economic climate, opera houses across the United States and abroad are seeing a decline in ticket sales; some have been able to restructure to survive, while others are shutting down. Companies are seeking a variety of ways to stay connected to the community; one avenue that has produced an area of contention is the addition of musical theatre productions to the season’s billing.
