[Mlredcon at aol.com]

I have read the first two books.  How different is this book.  My  
bookshelves are bending.

Good  morning everyone!
I am three chapters in to Ellin Keene's new book "To  Understand"  and have 
realized that this is one very important  book  for all of us on the list. It 
really deserves a forum for  discussion! Over the  weekend, Keith will help 
me set 
up a new,  temporary listserv for us to have a  place to chat about this  
book...so, more formal details will be coming. I will  be happy to  moderate 
this 
new discussion group but would welcome a co-moderator   or two to share 
responsibilities for facilitating discussions. Email me  off list  if you 
think you may 
be interested. I plan to invite Ellin  to join us as well  and I wouldn't be 
surprised if she pipes up on a  few discussion threads here or  there.  

So...run right out  and get your copy of the book. I want to wait a couple  
weeks to  begin the formal discussions to allow everyone time to get the   
book---maybe March 15 would be a good start date for the introductory  
material  and 
the first two chapters. Feel free to email me off list  with suggestions for  
discussion topics/prompts, ideas for timelines  for discussion, etc.  
Can't wait for the discussion to  begin...
