Weekly reminder emails are sent the Monday before each class. If you accepted marketing from me at registration, you’ll receive these emails in your inbox and there’s no need to reference this page. If you did not accept marketing, this is where you need to look for all class communication as I’m unable to send you emails.

Week of 9/23/24 Before Class Begins

INTRODUCTORY EMAIL:

Greetings, Writing Families.

Our first meeting is right around the corner and I want to share details that help Family of Writers run smoothly.

First, here are links to the course materials for every cohort. Please be sure to read the welcome letter and download the workbook before your first class.

Second, bring the following to every class:

One printed workbook per child attending from your family.
Favorite pen or pencil.
Writing pages are included in the workbook, but bring notebook paper and/or a journal if you or your children prefer writing on different paper. TIP: Don’t bring small journals or diaries. We all need lots of space on the page to let our ideas expand!
Beverage if desired.
Dinner if you don’t have time to eat before 6 PM.

Third, know your cohort (1, 2, or 3) and show up at the right school.

Cohort 1 meets at Mira Catalina (30511 Lucania Drive, RPV).
Cohort 2 meets at Vista Grande (7032 Purple Ridge Drive, RPV).
Cohort 3 meets at Montemalaga (1121 Via Nogales, PVE).

Fourth, please arrive promptly.

Be seated with your child, ready to write at 6 PM in the school MPR.
I do an early bird drawing as an incentive so give yourself time to get your names in the drawing before 6 PM.

Fifth, look for reminder emails arriving in your inboxes every Monday before class. With the information included in these emails, it’s not necessary to log into the membership area on my website. Everything you need each week is provided in the email.

If you don’t see the emails, the following could be occuring:

They’re in promotions or spam.
You didn’t yet reply to an email confirming it’s ok for me to send you emails.
You opted out of marketing at registration. This means you need to log into our course membership area to see copies that I’ve posted. Directions included at end of this email.

Finally, if you have any questions, please refer to FOW FAQ or email me (LorrieTom@lorriet.com).

It’s an honor to write with you and your kids during Family of Writers. I appreciate the effort it takes to return to school at night. I’m looking forward to our time together. Remember, you’ll arrive tired, but leave inspired.

Always writing,

Lorrie Tom
