She is well fed, very friendly with people, long fur white and orange, wears a red collar with a little bell on it - she must have an owner somewhere and we can´t keep her at the hotel. If anyone knows who´s cat that is please contact Katy at k@wolf-pm.com

Have you always wanted to learn to write or to polish your writing skills? The East Cape Asociación de Artes is considering offering another writer’s workshop at the Colina del Sol clubhouse beginning on March 15, 2011 for four weeks. There will be two sessions per week, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. There are no mandatory turn-in requirements. Instead, you will be involved in discovering the fun of writing through practical exercises and group discussions. Topics during these two-hour sessions include finding your voice, basic principle of writing, elements of style, writing a family memoir, writing non-fiction, writing fiction, writing short stories and children’s books. The cost is $50 USD/ $600 Pecos. All proceeds benefit Asociación de Artes programs. Leading the discussions will be Walter Zapotoczny, East Cape resident and professional published writer. If you are interested, please email Walter at mail@wzaponline.com so we can get a count of interested individuals.
