Writing is an awe-inspiring act of courage. I open this presentation with the Chariot Wheel from India’s prized Sun Temple because it speaks to every writer’s journey. Just as the sun god Surya wanted to be visible to people and a friend to all, every writer wants to share a connection with readers. Whether the medium for this connection is the printed page or mobile device, writers must have the time, skill, and resources to create their works. The wheel of time waits for no one. That’s why I chose the wheel as a metaphor to help you manage your publishing career.

Seen in quotes, "Service Design" sounds a rallying cry for a purpose of service, but too often at a high price: confusing the definitions of both service and design. This is a good time to intervene.
In this presentation, Drupal for Designers author Dani Nordin will talk about the process of user experience design for the Drupal CMS, and some specific techniques and tools which can help make the process easier. You will learn:
• Why Drupal teams need UX designers, and how to sell strategic UX to your team.
* How to identify core user groups and recruit participants for user interviews to flesh out your understanding of the site's target audience.
• Why prototyping directly in Drupal isn't a great idea in the beginning phases of a project—and when going straight to Drupal is a good idea.
• Specific techniques that can be used in your next project to step up the user experience.

How are Catholics and parishes using social media? This is a critical question. Further, what are the strategies, tactics, and tools used by Catholic communities to build unity, shared values and expand outreach? That is the purpose of this presentation on World Communications Day.
2016 marks the Jubilee for World Communications Day. In the Catholic Church, World Communications Day is an observance of how we use social communications tools in furthering our understanding of the Gospel, our families, our communities, our relationships with each other.
This presentation provides an overview of World Communications Day, beginning in 2006 with Pope Benedict XVI. It is in the Pope’s 2006 message that we have the first reference to social media applications. This presentation includes the most recent message by Pope Francis entitled Communication and Mercy: A Fruitful Encounter. 2016 is also the Holy Year of Mercy. Finally, the presentation concludes with five tips for using social media effectively in church communications.

This presentation addresses seven book marketing questions for authors and publishers working in academic and professional publishing markets. Search and discovery drive how users find content. Content marketing techniques are becoming more important for authors and for publishers. But the way forward is far from clear for either party. These book marketing questions serve as a starting point for meaningful and productive conversations between academic or professional authors and their book publishers in markets that are driven by social networking and social media marketing. The best outcome is for the author to craft her own marketing strategy that will complement and amplify the efforts of the publisher.
The writer's brand called you for the International Women's Writing Guild Con...Melissa A. Rosati, CPCC
The Writer's Brand Called You is a presentation for the attendees of the International Women's Writing Guild at the Big Apple Writing Conference held in New York City. In this interactive writing workshop, writers learn how to craft their brand and how to position their print and digital content into their target market. The four major digital retailers, Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and Apple are discussed.
Women writers have numerous opportunities to use their writing skills to create content for many different social channels and to monetize their content by creating digital products. Content marketing plays a significant role in branding a writer's reputation.
The Writer's Brand Called You is the first step in an on-going series of presentations dedicated to women writers.
Stroke of Intuition: A Daughter's Perspective on Her Mother's Stroke RecoveryMelissa A. Rosati, CPCC
WORLD STROKE AWARENESS DAY is October 29th.
In the United States, stroke causes one death every four minutes.
When Melissa A. Rosati had a precognitive dream of an older woman in an intensive care unit, she did not consider the woman might be her mother. But her mother, an indomitable prima ballerina of dance instructors, was a ticking time bomb for a stroke. Each family member missed the symptoms.
Days after the dream, Melissa's mother suffered a massive stroke. This mother and daughter relationship, by no means an easy one, faced the ultimate test of resourcefulness in the stroke’s aftermath of partial paralysis, speech impairment, and vision loss.
Describing her mother's hospital room as a "hellfire pit of helplessness and loss," Melissa realizes her mother's best chance for survival is not in medical intervention alone. Her mother was a stroke patient by circumstances. She was a dancer in her heart and soul.
In the United States, where 45 million adult caregivers provide care for someone over the age of fifty, there is growing interest in using creative arts in approaches to caregiving.
In this presentation, Melissa shares how a hospital bed transformed into a dance studio, reclaiming her mother's identity, her will to live, and surprising her medical team.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Chariot Wheel in the ancient Sun Temple at Konark, Orissa, India
“Here the language of stone surpasses the language of man.”--Rabindranath Tagore, Poet
3. Introduction
Writing is an awe-inspiring act of courage. I open this presentation with the Chariot Wheel from India’s prized Sun
Temple because it speaks to every writer’s journey. Just as the sun god Surya wanted to be visible to people and a
friend to all, every writer wants to share a connection with readers. Whether the medium for this connection is the
printed page or mobile device, writers must have the time, skill, and resources to create their works. The wheel of
time waits for no one. That’s why I chose the wheel as a metaphor to help you manage your publishing career.
The eight spokes in the ancient chariot wheel serve as sundials. The shadows cast the exact time of day. The eight
spokes in the Publishing Wheel represent the core elements of a successful career path. The Publishing Wheel is
a self-discovery tool that will help you clarify your goals, identify your strengths, and point to areas that need further
development.
Here’s how to get started.
On the next page, I provide you with a before and after Publishing Wheel. Notice the blank wheel is divided into
eight sections. Each section is labeled by a core element for success. The circle’s dividing lines have nine hash
marks.
The center point in the circle represents zero (0). The rim of the wheel represents ten (10). For each section, give
yourself a score between 0 and 10 by placing a dot (●) on the corresponding hash mark. When you are finished, use
a line to connect your dots around the wheel (see example).
To guide your thinking about each section score, I provide you with questions and statements. These are guidelines,
not hard and fast rules. The objective is to get a total picture of where you feel you are. There’s no ‘A’ wheel. It is
what you make it. Use this exercise whenever you want a snapshot of your progress.
