[image: WendyWahman_1018.jpg] Mining Childhood Memories for Stories with Wendy Wahman *FREE EVENT! Open to all members and non-members.* *Oct. 27th, 2-4pm at Wheelock Library* *3722 N 26th St, Tacoma, WA 98407* Tom Robbins said, “It’s never too late to have a happy childhood.” Let’s see if he’s right. Wendy will lead us through a series of writing and drawing exercises to loosen memories and get our stories flowing. She can’t promise a happy childhood, but one would be hard pressed to leave the meeting without at least one new story idea. Bring paper and pencils for writing and illustrating exercises! Wendy is an award winning editorial illustrator & children's book author/illustrator. Her books include “Don't Lick the Dog”, "A Cat Like That" & others.
