Recommendations of the month:
Your Local Art Gallery:
Does your city or town have an art gallery? If so, consider becoming a member. They often run amazing events and offer a great opportunity to get out of the house and mingle with the local community. I am a member of the National Gallery of Canada and also frequent many of the smaller local galleries. Not only do I always have an wonderful time, I also occasionally find a piece to add to my collection.

Tip of the month: Zathom.com
Zathom is website for creatives which challenges you to write within constraints. You are given three words and need to use each of them in s story no longer than 55 words. It is very challenging and very rewarding. If you have time to spare or are looking for a burst of inspiration head over to their website and check them out. Be sure to follow me on the site to see all the Zathoms I create!
What to share the Calm Scribe Newsletter? Go ahead! Please forward this message to anyone who might be interested.
Don't forget, your local library can be a great resource. When was the last time you visited?
That is it for this month's newsletter, thank you for your continued support.
