SUMMARY:Fannie Lou Hamer One-Woman Show with Author Pamela D. Marshall
DESCRIPTION:Come join the Writers Alliance of Gainesville for a treat on Sunday\, March 9\, at 2:30 p.m. when author Pamela D. Marshall presents “The Speeches and Writings of Fannie Lou Hamer: A One Woman Show.”\n\n“As a writer\,” Marshall said\, “creating the Fannie Lou Hamer One-Woman Show taught me the power of weaving research and authentic voices and her songs into storytelling. By delving into Mrs. Hamer’s speeches and legacy\, I found a way to bring history to life\, evoking emotion and inspiring action.\n\n“For writers\, this process demonstrates how to transform research into compelling narratives that resonate deeply with audiences\, creating work that informs and moves people to think\, feel\, and act. I hope this performance inspires you to uncover powerful stories waiting to be told in your own work.”\n\nMarshall is also a peace ambassador and The WELLness Network/Publishing executive director. Inspired by her journey and the fresh perspectives of her grandson BJ\, Pamela crafts stories that nurture young minds\, weaving themes of forgiveness\, environmental stewardship\, and emotional well-being.\nHer works include The Art of Forgiveness: An Expression of Peace and children’s books BJ and The Majestic Forgiveness Tree and BJ’s Big Mission\, Easie Turtle’s Healing\, Heals Earth.\n\nA seasoned journalist\, public policy advisor\, and keynote speaker\, Marshall’s expertise earned her an interview at the White House during the Obama Administration. She resides in Florida with her husband\, Scott\, and delights in being “Beanie” to BJ.

SUMMARY:Enneagrams for Writers and Other Creatives
DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker Dina Smith\, a licensed mental health professional\, will describe how the Enneagram can benefit writers and other creatives. She believes clarity can be empowering—and the Enneagram is the GPS that gets you there. She says the Enneagram can be a powerful tool for writers in several ways\, helping them develop richer characters\, deeper themes\, and more authentic storytelling.\n\nIn this presentation\, you will learn the Core Motivations of the 9 Enneagram basic types\, as well as the process\, goal\, and obstacle for each Enneagram type as a writer. You might know where you are and where you want to go\, but that doesn’t mean you won’t encounter roadblocks\, detours\, or even a need to reroute.  We will also take a brief look at how each Enneagram type has paths for utilizing strengths and overcoming weaknesses as a writer. Just like a GPS maps out the most direct route to your destination\, the Enneagram shows you the path to becoming your highest\, truest self.\n\nIf you wish to test your Enneagram in advance of Smith’s talk\, here’s a link she supplied: https://www.truity.com/test/enneagram-personality-test. It’s free.\n\nSmith is a Masters Certified Addictions Professional and an Enneagram Informed Mental Health Professional. She has worked in community mental health and hospital-based settings\, with a focus on addiction medicine for the past 18 years. Currently\, she serves as the Director of Clinical Services at the UF Health Florida Recovery Center. She is consistently recognized for promoting understanding through using the Enneagram to enhance the personal and professional growth for individuals and teams. In her free time\, Dina enjoys being part of a team that leads worship at her church and spending time with her husband and two small children.\n\nThe talk will be held in Meeting Room A at the Millhopper Library.
