Linda S. Browning Releases IN-BETWEEN REFLECTIONS
by BWW News Desk - March 31, 2016
Elizabeth Pickett Sloan dies peacefully at the age of ninety six in the family mansion known as Pickett House. The last of her line, Elizabeth leaves her estate and mansion to the town of Bigby, Tennessee for the purpose of establishing a Bed & Breakfast. Laura Dole, a recently widowed thirty seven-year-old, is hired to supervise renovations and manage Pickett House. The relocation from a posh Nashville suburb to a rural town is a major adjustment for Laura, her fourteen-year-old daughter, Cassie, and seven-year-old daughter, Steph. Elizabeth's presence remains in the house. She is deeply disturbed by the overwhelming sadness this family brings to Pickett House and gets busy banishing the sadness from her ancestral home. The members of the Dole family are unaware that their new friends are all age-appropriate versions of Elizabeth. This book is about loss, starting over, growing up a little, and falling in love. A ninety six-year-old woman was not always a ninety six-year-old woman. She was the little girl who had loved her daddy and understood the importance of promises. She had been the teenager who was afraid of new challenges until she learned that a difference could mean a change for the better. As a grown woman she had also suffered the cruel loss of a true love and yet remained unafraid to love again... and again. Elizabeth receives some help from a scruffy dog named Weldon and a cat named Marshmallow. A handsome, available, male veterinarian doesn't hurt the story at all.

Wright Scoop Launches 'The ABCs of Greening Communications'
by BWW News Desk - March 31, 2016
Supplied by some of the best Industry marketers, the Wright Scoop's newly launched book, 'The ABCs of Greening Communications,' provides step-by-step strategies proven to avoid loss of market share while placing emphasis on 'how to' communicate the eco-sustainability of products and services. Defined in its simple terms - 'eco-sustainability' is a frugal use of limited resources which decrease product/service expenses, increase profit; and result in earth-friendly activities that provide for present-day lifestyles without sacrificing the eco-future of others. Project Back Ground - Solicited as a workshop instructor for the National League of Cities conference held in Washington, DC, when Wright challenged attendees - congressmen, city mayors, county managers, city/county planners and educators - to identify 'greening' in their communities, no one could identify his/her community's eco-leaders, a response that should be viewed by all as a wake-up call for USA Industries. So, through gathering Industry data through interviews, distribution of an Industry survey and ongoing interactive columns, the Wright Scoop - Sylvia Hoehns Wright researched and has launched a book - 'The ABCs of Greening Communications' - which explores the relationship of 'planet' vs. people, product/service and profit as a critical factor which impacts products and services, not simply eco-sustainable but leading edge branded images more easily identified by consumers. The 4th in a series of publications, Wright's book, the ABCs of Greening Communications is published to inspire all to create an eco-legacy of C A R E - conservation, accountability, recovery and eco-efficiency! Initially, published in paper print as a college level text ABCs of Green Industry Communications, Wright edited her publication to challenge biz communities to become members of Capitalism 24902, a global village committed to ensuring the foundation of an eco-sustainable future. Industry Comments - 'Tools of communication, they're tools of creativity, and they can be shaped by their user.' Bill Gates 'As a former educator, I've observed as Wright emphasizes, an image - brand must be relevant, avoid loss of market share through attrition, while placing emphasis on eco, greening, aspects of the product or service provided.' - Leonard O. Morrow, PhD, retired botanist and horticulturist 'Nurturing and brimming with accomplishment, Sylvia seamlessly brings people together to showcase their best talents.' - Nicole M. Bouchard, Editor-in-Chief The Write Place At the Write Time 'Ideas abound in ABCs of Green Industry Communications as Sylvia Wright profiles some of the best marketers and communicators in the business, bringing fresh takes and new approaches to attracting and engaging customers.' - Bill Calkins, business manager at Ball Horticultural Company in West Chicago, Illinois About the Wright Scoop - Wright has taught communications for the Virginia Community College system and provided speeches and workshops for national and international conferences such as the All Cities Congressional City Conference held in DC and PLANET's Green Industry Conference held at Louisville, Kentucky. A graduate in BS Management of Communication Systems at VA Commonwealth University (VCU) and participate in MS Special Studies at VCU, Wright is a graduate of the VA Natural Resource Leadership Institute program sponsored by UVA and VA Tech.
