Your host: Helen Worth, TVIH member and retired newspaper writer
Today's topic: “ The Many Face of a Writing Career”
Helen will share stories about her writing career with us. She started writing in the sixth grade, creating poems about fellow classmates. It was all up from there. At Wilkes University in the mid-1960s, Helen wrote the “Little Chuckles” column for the school - a look at the lighter side of college. Marriage and motherhood found her writing freelance pieces for the Columbia Times and the Columbia magazine, while serving as the Editor of a national newsletter on ADHD.
Helen became a stringer for the Baltimore Sun’s newly created Howard County Section in 1981 while earning a masters in communications.
For 27 years, Helen was a writer at The Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory”

Come to join us for our new “Good Morning, Howard!” zoom group. We will be following the new schedule as listed below:
Monday & Wednesday at 9:00 AM
Our goal is to provide Howard County residents an opportunity to come together in a relaxed atmosphere, to meet with others, and to participate in the discussion/activities of Health and Wellness. Our content may include using technology to connect with family and friends, gardening, exercise, music, movies, jokes, popular websites, and healthy diet.
Participation is easy because driving is not required. This social program is for TVIH members and older adults from Howard County. This program was popular in August and is continuing in September.
Volunteers (TVIH members) will take turns to serve as the hosts of the GMH zoom meetings. The hosts will greet the participants, make introductions, and give the feedback/suggestions back to the membership committee.
