New Club Focuses on Books of Interest To Teens

How would you like to join a club which would allow you to:

Find out just what is going on in your favorite musician's head while 
he's
performing on stage?
Learn what kids your age do when they are bullied in school?
Discover what life is like on another planet, real or imaginary?
Consider the impact war has on the development of society?
Meet blind people who have done all sorts of exciting things like 
working as
a traveling musician, going to medical school, traveling the world or
raising a family?

All of these adventures might be yours to enjoy if you come to the 
Friends
of Bookshare Teen Book Club.  (Yes, I know; that name lacks pizzazz; I'm
open to suggestions.)

If you are interested, then join me at 6:00 p.m. Pacific; 9:00 p.m. 
Eastern
on Tuesday, October 21, in the Friends of Bookshare community room at
http://conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs7867a2369e0e

.
During the first meeting, we'll take a little time to get to know each
other and we'll figure out when future meetings will occur.  Come ready 
to
tell us what your favorite book is and why; that will be a fun way for 
us to
meet.

If you would like to contact me prior to the meeting, you may write to
broadwaydon at optonline.net.
Your parents are also welcome to contact me; I'd
love to share the exciting news about the Book Club with them too.

 Hope to see you there.
