Sharon, it looks as though 20 people have responded and maybe Monday, June 17 is the date...? I've volunteered to collect agenda items, but I need everyone's help in gathering notes on what took place during our idea exchange. My own notes are not as good as I thought they were! I do know that we learned a lot about a terrific online literary map, "DC By the Book," and that we heard a great line: "Books are like bacon: the thicker the better."
