Farewell to Glen Campbell
Our member Mrs. Sue Perry, accomplished poet and composer, has written the article about the passing of the Great Glen Campbell, published on August 11, 2017, in the Florida Today:
Rest in peace, Rhinestone Cowboy
He didn’t write the songs. They were exceptional on their own. But his mellow voice and solid presence breathed life into them and gave them legs. For more than a half century his hits cut deep into my generation’s internal places of longing, thoughtfulness and hope.
Glen Campbell passed this week. I seldom cry but invisible tears are pooling. He was gifted, but his success was built upon preparation and hard work. No doubt it was made possible by a family that nourished their seventh son with whatever resources they had.
He came from the same part of the country as Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Hank Williams and had the same tender, stubborn mindset. The blend of cotton fields, churches, material poverty and spiritual abundance that nurtured Glen Campbell wasn’t perfect and is in its last days. But like Detroit’s Motown, it produced people making music from their hearts that connected around the world.
Eighty-one is a decent number of years to live. But I will miss the laid-back personality, decency and good manners, just-right good looks, and the humility that carried it. The divorces, troubles with alcohol and cocaine were mistakes I can forgive.
Goodbye, Glen Campbell. Thank you for “Gentle on My Mind.” Thank you for “The Wichita Lineman” that lifts us into the romantic love experienced by the humble lineman. How about “The Rhinestone Cowboy” that rides us into fame and glory?
Great entertainers come and go. The Glen Campbells are few. I am glad he was there for me.
Sue Perry, Rockledge

AWARD PRESENTATIONS - THE BEST POETS OF BREVARD COUNTY , SEPTEMBER, 30, 2017
CELEBRATION OF AN ANNIVERSARY AND TWO BIRTHDAYS
Four members of the Cocoa Beach Writers Workshop celebrated today in the circle of close friends, the 67th Wedding Anniversary, the 101st birthday, and the 39th birthday, at the Merritt Island Olive Garden Restaurant. Howard and Rhoda Bernbaum were married sixty-seven years ago. Rhoda was only twenty years old and her father had to give his blessings and sign the approval before Howard could take his bride away; they sailed happily ever after in Howard's twenty-six foot sailboat. Edward Kydd, another mariner who sailed the ocean from Canada to the south seas, celebrated his 101st birthday and he revealed his secret for healthy longevity: Keep misbehaving and you'll live a long life. The youngest member of the four celebrated her "39th" birthday and you'll recognize her with her zany hat and a charming smile. That's our Janet Corso who rightfully claimed the honors of the "39th" birthday. May God bless you all with many more happy anniversaries and birthdays.

First Writers Forum at Cocoa Beach Library, May 7, 2016
On May 7th, 2016 Brevard Authors Society and Cocoa Beach Beach Library presented the first MYSTERY WRITERS FORUM introducing five local renown authors. The event was coordinated by Mrs. Nicolle Anderson, CB Library Adult Program Librarian and Mr. Gene Luke Vlahovic, Brevard Authors Society founder and organizer. The Mystery Writers Forum was hosted by Mrs. Jane Beskow and attended by numerous CB Library friends and book lovers.
The five mystery authors used easy methods with efficient conveyance of their literary works to the public. The secret of their success was attributed to their determination, research and development process, plot and superlative storytelling. In an informal presentation authors outlined the mystery craftsmanship along the lines of most successful publications encouraging book lovers in their support of local authors.
Ms. Anna Flowers opened the forum with the introduction of her True Crime novels and the profile of her career as a reporter and author. Her books Blind Fury and Bound to Die published by Kensignton Publishers accumulated considerable recognition and respect that placed Ms. Anna Flowers' name in the annals of mystery writers worldwide.
Mr. Marshall Frank introduced his published books as fiction novels based on the personal experiences beginning from his childhood growing up around mafia characters including his step father - bookie, later as a Miami policeman, Miami police captain, investigator of many homicides and related crimes that served as the main source of information for his crime novels and mystery stories.
Mrs. Pegi Insula talked about her family as the main source of material for her novels and stories. Novel Murder Runs in My Family is one of the best written crime novels in this group of writers.
Mr. Bruce Buckingham introduced his first novel The Last Snowman in Paris. In a humorous presentation of his new novel Mr. Buckingham spoke of his writing career as a speech writer for US Congressman Nelson, and as a spokesman for NASA. He developed several ideas for his own fiction stories but it took him, as he said "half of his lifetime to put it in his book."
Mrs. Kay Williamson has written several novels in the mystery genre. She is an avid artist, musician and a writer, and together with her beloved husband Don they entertain lonely hearts of folks in nursing homes, VA Hospitals and senior centers playing lively sing-along music and tell corny jokes.
