We’re always open to new ideas — especially the ones that come from lived experience, curiosity, and the perspective that only seasoned adults can bring. Whether it’s a recurring feature, a column, or a one‑time experiment, we welcome fresh angles and creative surprises from our writers. Visit the Content Management Hub or send an email to connectsolli25@gmail.com.

Community of Readers and Writers — This SIG (Shared Interest Group) meets via zoom for discussion and special events and to share reading of current novels, non-fiction, short stories, memoir, and essays. We offer feedback through group conversation with experienced readers and writers, develop our storytelling and literary skills, and train newcomers in our supportive methods.
