July's Meeting - Thursday the 22nd 2010

Several members are going to be taking some vacation, or out of town for other reasons in June and July. Our meeting will be Thursday July 22, 2010.



We are all reading "Clock Without Hands" by Carson McCullers. I finished it a couple of weeks ago, and am now reading "The Optimist's Daughter" by Eudora Welty. Fun fact: the email client "Eudora" was written by a programmer who liked Ms. Welty's writing and her name, so he named it after her. I don't know if she got any royalties. The poet / ex-professor Stella Nesanovich (www.Nesanovich.com) met her and has an autographed first edition of "The Optimist's Daughter."



We hope everyone is enjoying this hot weather. Our topic is now "Scandinavian Authors."

New Technology - KNO may be a Kindle,Sony eBook Reader, Nook slayer

A company called KNO has debuted a device that has two 14" touch screens and is in color. I don't know too much about it yet, but think it's got great potential if it is affordable and if the company can make a decent profit on it.

I'd sure love to see this. Huffington has this new to share about it:
