DSA MONTHLY MEETING FEB 4 2021 with guest speaker EMMELINE MILES

 Emmeline Miles is a musician and candidate for Doctor of Liberal Studies at SMU's Simmons School of Education and Human Development. Because music engages the entire brain and reaches aspects of the human spirit that are beyond words, the creation of music is uniquely capable of facilitating post-traumatic healing. Emmeline is doing research that seeks to identify whether the act of creative writing—with or without music—can better prepare children for adverse experiences and provide them with the tools to process those experiences.

Critiques will follow:

As usual, for members we will also have song critiques by industry pros Barbe McMillen and Joe Milton.  Play your song live, from your computer, or your phone or email an MP3 to Harry Hewlett at hhhewlett@gmail.com, and also you can display your lyrics from your computer so the members can give comments as well.  You will also be entered into the DSA Song of the Year and Songwriter of the Year contest. The cost is $10 per song.
