July 30, 1999

Dear Writer,

As part of Brescia University's Studies on Samoan Culture Program, I would like to invite you to be a participant in the publication of an anthology of writings and art works from Samoa by a selected group of contemporary women artists and authors.

What the other editors and I envision is a book that conveys life in today's Samoan community as seen by the best of creative female senses. At this stage we are soliciting the involvement of such talents as yours in the ambitious project. If you are interested in having your work appear in the anthology, please contact me. Our editorial board is aiming at an October 30, 1999 deadline for your submission and selections of your work.

We look forward to having you.

Sincerely,

Connie Maxey Payne

Project Coordinator
