SPEAKER: Marcia Fine: www.marciafine.com blog: http://jeanrubinblog.com
At Florida State University she majored in English and then taught high school for five years while working toward a Masters degree in English Education and a Certificate of Concentration in Women’s Studies. Marcia also taught freshman composition at Arizona State University.
In 2000 Marcia began to pursue her dream of writing. Having written two satires about the upscale Scottsdale crowd, she then took a different direction and completed two more books.
Marcia states her motivation quite simply…
MARCIA FINE “Every Woman has A Story!”
Marcia is going to share how she has formatted a writing career in two different genres to become a prize-winning author. Eleven years ago she had the desire to write, stories to tell and nothing written down. The journey of lessons learned, her encouragement and suggestions will inspire you!
“I love the written word. I have stories to tell.”

AGENDA: The agendas will be on the dinner table and the format remains the same.
ROOM: Cactus Room – fourth floor of Chaparral Suites just off the center elevator, immediately to the left of the 4th Floor Grille. See directions below for this elevator and parking. Facing the 4th Floor Grille exiting this elevator, do not enter the Grille, take an immediate left. We are in the Cactus Room, a banquet room just a few yards away.
DIRECTIONS: Chaparral Suites is in Scottsdale at Chaparral Road and Scottsdale Road on the north/east corner and just north of Fashion Square Mall – Chaparral Road has a light. Parking is in the rear – two large parking lots – best to enter from the middle elevator for the 4th Floor Grille.
From the 101 freeway exit Chaparral Road and go west. Just prior to Scottsdale Road enter the side drive where it says 4th Floor Grille and come up that elevator – it is in the center of the hotel complex. There is an awning marked 4th Floor Grille. This is the easiest way in – not through the lobby. The parking lots are in the back on the north end of the complex.
THANK YOU
