On November 29, 2006, starting at 7:30 PM, Law: The Afterlife will be hosting an event at Stone Creek Bar and Lounge (27th St. btwn 3rd/Lex Aves), in the back room. The event will begin with half an hour of cocktails and mingling, and at 8:00 we will be presenting a panel composed of lawyers-turned-writers.
This panel will be moderated by Marci Alboher, a lawyer-turned-freelance writer/speaker/coach, whose upcoming book, One Person/Multiple Careers: A New Model for Work/Life Success, will be published by Warner Books in February 2007. For more information about Marci, visit http://www.heymarci.com/.
The panel will feature Jeremy Blachman, AKA Anonymous Lawyer, whose work can be found on-line at http://anonymouslawyer.blogspot.com/, as well as in his new book, Anonymous Lawyer.
Other panelists include Michael Melcher, a lawyer turned executive coach who is also a writer. His published works include numerous articles; a collaboratively written novel, The Student Body (pub. in 1998 under the pen name "Jane Harvard"); and a forthcoming self-help book for lawyers, The Creative Lawyer. For more information about Michael, visit http://www.michaelmelcher.com/.
Gretchen Rubin, a former attorney who clerked for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, and who has written three non-fiction books and is in the process of writing a fourth, will also be a panelist. For more on Gretchen, visit http://www.gretchenrubin.com/.
The panelists will address the challenges in moving from a form of writing plagued by legalese to less formalistic ways of writing, as well as different genres of writing, including fiction, non-fiction, blogging, articles and television writing. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask the panelists questions both during a formal Q&A session and post-panel while enjoying what Stone Creek's cash bar and food menu have to offer.
There is no charge or RSVP required. For more information, please contact us at lawafterlife@yahoo.com.
