Hello OWFI! Happy almost Fall!
I hope you're ready for all the pumpkin-y goodness already rolling out EVERYWHERE! I know I am. Now if they weather will stay consistently in the 80s or lower!
Before I get into what's coming up, I want to say, "THANK YOU!" to everyone who joined our 1st Virtual Workshop with TOR Editor, Bess Cozby. The Slack platform was flawless--Thank you, Webmaster Jack!-- and the information Bess shared was great. If you missed out, no worries. Webmaster Jack has uploaded the transcript to the members section of the OWFI website under MEMBERS-VIRTUAL WORKSHOPS.
And if you're wondering when the next one will be, wonder no more!
