EVENTS Meeting October 8, 2016 - Heidi Ruby Miller "How Chronic Pain Has Made Me More Autotelic" What started as a forced transition due to health concerns has turned into a wondrous full-circle journey as a creator, both metaphorically and globally. This is how I found my way back from writing as a daily business to embracing my words as the artistic endeavor it is.

Each DogCon is different and this one will be more about strengthening the RDSP author community than having public book events.

Plans are evolving but here are some of the things we will definitely do: Group meals/snacks (likely a shrim...
