SUMMARY:Barnes Shares Column-Writing Insights at National High School Journalism Convention
DESCRIPTION:Terri Barnes\, Elva Resa’s senior editor and the creator of a popular and long-running column in Stars and Stripes\, spoke to a room full of student journalists who filled the seats and sat in the aisles to hear about the importance of columns in news publications and the craft of column-writing. \nBarnes led a workshop called “Becoming A Columnist” at the Spring National High School Journalism Convention in San Francisco \, California\, April 14\, 2018. She also served alongside other journalists and educators as a judge for the Write-Off Contest at the convention\, which is co-sponsored by the Journalist Education Association and the National Scholastic Press Association. With more than 4\,000 delegates from hundreds of schools\, the JEA/NSPA convention is the largest gathering of student journalists in the country. \n“I was so impressed by the caliber of writing I saw in some of the contest entries and by the thoughtful questions that came from the workshop\,” says Barnes. “As well as column-writing\, we talked about the Florida students who reported first-hand about the Parkland shooting and the importance of a free press in a free nation.” \nBarnes is the author of Spouse Calls: Messages From a Military Life\, a collection of her newspaper columns. \nIn the workshop\, she read excerpts from her own work and other columnists after opening the session by reading an excerpt from Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. Barnes says Carroll’s word play and use of riddles and questions provide excellent opportunities to talk to writers about word choice and asking questions. She has spoken to many groups about writing\, including students from grade school to university level\, both in the US and overseas.

SUMMARY:Corie Weathers Reading & Booksigning\, Barnes & Noble\, Savannah\, Saturday\, February 11\, 2017\, 2 PM
DESCRIPTION:Elva Resa author Corie Weathers\, and her husband\, Army Chaplain Matthew Weathers\, will read together portions of Corie’s book Sacred Spaces: My Journey to the Heart of Military Marriage at a booksigning event Saturday\, February 11\, 2017 at 2 PM Eastern. The event takes place at Barnes & Noble\, Oglethorpe Mall\, 7804 Abercorn\, Savannah\, Georgia. \nCopies of Sacred Spaces will be available for sale at Barnes & Noble during the event and Corie will sign purchased books following the reading. \nAbout the book: \nAs the 2015 Armed Forces Insurance Military Spouse of the Year\, Corie traveled on an overseas holiday trip with US Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter in December 2015. She wanted to better understand her husband’s deployments and share her experience with other military spouses. \nLike many military couples\, Corie and Matt accumulated significant unshared moments during Matt’s deployments. Matt lost friends and fellow soldiers to combat in Afghanistan. On the home front\, Corie sat with bereaved military families and walked through dark days with new widows as a friend and professional counselor. When Matt returned\, he and Corie began using the term “sacred spaces” for these and other significant moments they had experienced independently. After multiple deployments\, sacred spaces were taking up a lot of emotional room in their relationship. \nCorie didn’t choose the timing or circumstances of her trip with Secretary Carter—Christmastime\, in the midst of her family’s second cross-state move in six months—but it seemed the perfect opportunity for Corie and Matt to gain a better understanding of each other’s perspectives. \nMatt experienced life on the home front with new eyes as he moved their household belongings\, prepared for the holidays\, and settled their two young sons into their new school. \nCorie’s trip brought her to Turkey\, Iraq\, Afghanistan\, and the Persian Gulf\, where she spoke with military families stationed overseas and deployed troops on the ground\, in the air\, and at sea.  As she sat in the belly of a C-17\, where her husband had said goodbye to the remains of friends and fellow soldiers\, as she touched with her own hands the memorial at FOB Fenty and reflected on her grief as a care team member following the battle of COP Keating\, Corie realized this journey was about much more than the push-pull of duty away from loved ones. \nThis was a journey to the heart of her marriage\, a place where she would have to leave behind her resentment in exchange for ground she and her husband had surrendered to hurt\, misunderstanding\, loss—and to Afghanistan. \nCorie set out on this trip hoping to gain a better understanding of her husband and his deployment experience\, but along the way\, she discovered a whole new perspective of herself and her military marriage. \nLocal ties:\nDuring Matt’s second deployment to Afghanistan\, he was stationed with Fort Stewart-based 3rd Infantry Division. He needed a ride back to the US for an important ceremony in Washington\, DC\, to support a fellow soldier. \nFrom Sacred Spaces: “Fortunately\, he encountered a group of special operation soldiers out of Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah\, Georgia.  They were headed home and heard that Matt was trying to get back to the US and why.  They ripped off Matt’s unit patch and told him he could be their chaplain for the duration of the trip back to their home base.  All he had to do was pray over their flight home.” \nCorie says\, “Matt will be forever grateful for the guys who snatched him up.  They had a part in changing our lives and our story.” \nThe event: \nCorie and Matt will read excerpts from the book at 2 PM and talk briefly about the impact of sacred spaces in their marriage and how couples can strengthen their relationship by intentionally creating shared sacred spaces. The booksigning will follow immediately after the reading.

SUMMARY:Ft Stewart PWOC Hosts Valentine Event for Military Couples\, Friday\, February 10\, 2017\, 6-9 PM
DESCRIPTION:Corie Weathers\, author of Sacred Spaces: My Journey to the Heart of Military Marriage\, and her husband\, US Army Chaplain Matthew Weathers\, are guest speakers at a special Valentine evening for military couples. Hosted by Fort Stewart PWOC\, the event takes place Friday\, February 10\, 2017\, 6-9 PM Eastern. \nAn Evening in Paris – Fort Stewart\nWhen: Friday\, February 10\, 2017\, 6-9 PM\nWHERE: Fort Stewart Main Chapel\, BLDG 500\, 10 Garry Owen St\, Fort Stewart\nHost: Protestant Women of the Chapel (PWOC) of Fort Stewart\, Georgia\nAUDIENCE: Military couples\nCost: $10 per couple\, limited seating\nTo attend: Tickets are available on a first-come basis beginning January 28.\nContact Roxanne Walker\, Stewartpwoc@gmail.com \nAn Evening in Paris\, hosted at Fort Stewart\, Georgia\, will be an elegant evening for military couples to celebrate their marriage\, spend time with one another\, and be reminded of the joy of their relationship. The theme focuses on the power that love\, faith\, and hope have in a healthy marriage. The event will be catered and include giveaways and the 3ID Jazz Band. Tickets are $10 per couple and seating is limited. \nUS Army Chaplain Matthew Weathers and his wife Corie Weathers\, a licensed counselor and the 2015 Armed Forces Insurance Military Spouse of the Year\, will speak at the event. The couple will share their own story as detailed in Corie’s book Sacred Spaces: My Journey to the Heart of Military Marriage\, and offer encouraging ideas for ways military couples can better communicate and see their marriage thrive in the military lifestyle. \nIf you are unable to attend this special evening\, you may meet Corie and Matt at a Barnes & Noble booksigning\, Saturday\, February 11\, at 2 PM at Oglethorpe Mall\, Savannah. The booksigning is open to the public and does not require a reservation or ticket. \nMatthew and Corie Weathers on Military Marriage:\nMatthew\, an active duty US Army Chaplain\, and Corie\, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and the 2015 Armed Forces Insurance Military Spouse of the Year\, have a passion for serving military and first responder families. The couple has worked together to support service members and families involved with the Global War on Terrorism. They cohost marriage retreats and offer an online marriage program designed to improve intimacy and connection. Corie speaks nationally on topics such as PTSD\, grief\, marriage\, and military family culture. \n“A surprising amount of military marriage is lived out separately rather than together. A couple can experience different perspectives of the same event at varying levels of intensity and sacrifice that can lead to a gap of understanding between them\,” says Matthew. “Our own marriage changed for the better when we realized we needed to respectfully create a space where we could share our individual experiences with each other\, without judgment or criticism. In those moments\, we grew exponentially closer\, thereby creating our own shared sacred space.” \nCorie adds\, “As a mental health counselor\, I found that many military couples struggle to share with one another the deep toll deployments\, loss\, fear\, and sacrifice have had on each of them individually. Over time\, couples can feel misunderstood and disconnected. To save our marriages from years of deployment cycles\, trauma\, and the interruption of family life\, couples must find a way to talk about the most sacred moments in their lives.” \nLocal Stewart/Hunter Ties:\nDuring Matt’s second deployment to Afghanistan\, he was stationed with Fort Stewart-based 3rd Infantry Division. A group of special operation soldiers out of Hunter Army Airfield gave him a ride back to the US for an important ceremony in Washington\, DC\, to support a fellow soldier. \nCorie says\, “Matt will be forever grateful for those guys. They had a part in changing our lives and our story.” \nAbout the Book:\nAs the 2015 Armed Forces Insurance Military Spouse of the Year\, Corie Weathers traveled on an overseas holiday trip with US Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter in December 2015.
