November's Meeting

Fellow Writers,

Please mark your calendar for the November Monthly Meeting of the Society of Latino and Hispanic Writers of San Antonio! The meeting will be on Monday, Nov. 12 at 7:30 p.m., at the Barnes and Noble, San Pedro Crossing. Our featured author will be Lupe Ruiz-Flores!

Lupe has just published, via Arte Publico Press, a bilingual children's picture book (with a lesson for everyone of all ages!), entitled "The Woodcutter's Gift/El Regalo del Lenador," about a woodcutter who creates a lasting gift that brings a community together. This book follow's Lupe's successful debut bilingual children's picture book, "Lupita's Papalote." Lupe has written numberous articles for local and national publications and some of her poetry has been published in anthologies. She is a member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators and has been a featured author at the Texas Book festival in Austin.

I hope everyone can attend this meeting to meet this talented lady who has also just completed a children's novel.
