Project Updates
Spring 2024 Update: We have launched the Writers of Meaning YouTube Podcast! We’re continuing to work on book formatting and layout. The book cover has three possible designs the volunteers and the community are voting on which one we’re going to lead with. The final choice will have more work and tweaking done to it.
The book team was able to get permission to reprint The Banner’s Estuary article and John Vandonk kindly added his own submission on the history and potential of Estuary!
The book team is aiming to publish this summer, 2024.

YouTube Podcast: Writers of Meaning
We needed a way to connect and communicate to the Bridges of Meaning online community and many of them are on YouTube. So since Valerie is in charge of public relations for the book, she stepped into the arena to promote the Writers of Meaning anthology project to our community and the public.
Above is the first video she did to explain the anthology project and invite donations, volunteers and folks to subscribe to the newsletter. It’s fun and short.
