NEWS FOR FRIENDS OF NORTH FLORIDA CENTER FOR DOCUMENTARY STUDIES, INC.
NFCDS,INC. officers Frank M. Cellon and Sudye Cauthen met today over huge plates of food at Lake City's Red Lobster, then split their dessert of Key Lime Pie. The meeting was useful, fattening, and pleasurable. It moved our next project--THE PLACE OF OUR REMEMBRANCE--forward. We made important decisions, leafed through old photos, considered inclusions, exclusions, attitude, and prospective dates of completion.
THE CENTER'S NEXT EVENTS:
Saturday, April 9 - Tower Road Library, Gainesville, FL 2-4 p.m. - WRITE. WRITE IT NOW! Tips, Tricks, and Techniques for the Writing Life, a Creative Writing Workshop led by Sudye Cauthen & open to the public. Reserve space at library.
Sunday, APRIL 17 - Tower Road Library, Gainesville, FL 2-4 p.m. - MEET MAGGIE RIDER 7 FRIENDS (a reading and signing) open to the public.

The hope for human civilization and the planet.
"If human nature is materialist to the core--self-serving, utilitarian, and pleasure-seeking--then there is little hope of resolving the empathy/entropy paradox. But if human nature is, rather, at a more basic level, predisposed to affection, companionship, sociability, and empathic extension, then there is the possibility, at least, that we might yet escape the empathy/entropy dilemma and find an accommodation that will allow us to restore a sustainable balance with the biosphere.
A radical new view of human nature has been slowly emerging and gaining momentum, with revolutionary implications for the way we understand and organize our economic social and environmental relations in the centuries to come. We have discovered Homo empathicus."

FEBRUARY EVENTS: ALACHUA, FLORIDA
On 12 February for two hours (with a 20 min break), beginning at 2 p.m., I'll be at the Alachua Florida library, offering the WRITE. WRITE IT NOW! workshop. Then on 20 Fev 2011 I'll return to Alachua Library (also at 2 pm) for an event celebrating release of THE SALVATION OF MAGGIE RIDER: Stories from Nokofta. I'll also have copies of SOUTHERN COMFORTS: Rooted in a Florida Place along. Hope to see old friends and new friends. Coming home!
Here's the workshop description; it's a lot of fun:
WRITE IT. WRITE IT NOW!
Tips, Tricks, and Techniques for the Writing Life
Sudye Cauthen, author of Florida Book Award Winner SOUTHERN COMFORTS: Rooted in a Florida Place offers a workshop about incorporating writing into our busy lives: how to keep the words coming, whether poetry, fiction, or nonfiction; exercises to sharpen skills of observation; openings and closings. The creation of memoir and its rewards, syntax, tone, flashbacks, and the centrality of yearning. The value of timelines, recognizing soft underbellies, and feeding the muse. We will come away excited about language. This workshop is open to the public; please call the ALachua Library to reserve a seat as space is limited. This workshop is open to the public at no charge.
