Fall Festivals and Pictures!

 Happy October 2024!

 

It’s been busy not just for Write Volumes but our authors as well. I think it’s important to celebrate, not just our successes, but hard work in general. Regardless of the outcome, hard work is hard and, while we may not see the fruits of our labor as quickly as one hopes, we did the work and that is the main area under our control! (Sometimes it’s the only thing we can control… or is control an illusion?!!)

 

So, I thought you would enjoy:

  • ·  Printer’s Row Festival with Fannie Price and Margot McMahon Pictures
  • · Annette Cyr’s Art Show and Yale Women Talk Pictures

 

FESTIVAL PICS

 

Printers Row is a large outdoor book and writing festival in Chicago which took place first weekend in September. On Saturday Sept. 7, 2024, Write Volumes and a couple Write Volumes authors were in attendance at the Chicago Writers Association table.

ANNETTE CYR’S ART SHOW


In September 2024 Annette Cyr had an art show at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art. “24 Hours” is a multi-canvas painting. Each canvas is of the same motif, painted a different hour of the day and night, beginning with 1 AM in upper left corner, ending with 12 AM in bottom right.


“24 Hours” becomes a study of awareness and perception, time and change. At its heart, “24 Hours” questions our perceptions. What do we really see before the mind decides what must be there? “The true mystery is reality.” — Annette Cyr

 

“24 Hours” is an extension of Annette’s "Year of Light" painting series begun in 2020 during Covid times which Annette describes in her Shades of Positively Pandemic short story also called “Year of Light” which was nominated for a Pushcart Prize.
