Thank you, CWA! ❤️

I’m proud to be a member of the Chicago Writers Association and being featured in the Speakers Bureau is a great honor.

In a recent revamp to their website, the wonderful folks at the CWA updated the Speakers Bureau page and I’m tickled to see that two of my favorite programs, Navigating Elder Care with Grace and Humor and Writing for Wellness made it to ‘front page status’.

Navigating Elder Care with Grace and Humor is one of three featured programs in the “Life and Family” Topic Area:

Writing for Wellness is one of ten featured programs in the “Writing, Research & Literature” Topic Area:

Thank you, CWA and thank you to my terrific publishers, Rick Kaempfer and David Stern at Eckhartz Press for their support.


I know it’s still August…but it’s a great time to think about fall and winter events.

In addition to these two programs, my consulting site has a menu of workshop offerings and suggested book club discussion ideas for Surviving Sue and Slivers.

Many thanks for the continuing interest in my work, friends, and for the referrals — recommending my books and programs to others. It means a lot and I’m grateful.

Vicki 💝

  1. Congratulations, Vicki, on two of your speaking programs being featured prominently on the CWA website! (I must confess that when I saw your headline, I first thought of the Cat Writers’ Association, of which I’m a member. 🙂 )
