Fixin' to Write Mini-conference


In a joint effort, Donna Francavilla and our organization organized a mini-conference for media and communication professionals.

There were 9 speakers, including some AMP members. Through an exercise with a partner (see photo), Kathryn Lang taught us how the body reacts to laughter.

The categories of the topics were self-improvement, internet tools, and media.

Other speakers there:

  • Steven Flowers

  • Meredith Cummings

  • Donna Francavilla - Founder, Frankly Speaking Communications, LLC

  • Saahara Glaudé - Publicist, Glaudé Productions

  • Monica Coleman - Web Weaver, Frankly Speaking Communications

  • Herb Patterson - Grant Proposal Specialist and Project Manager, Frankly Speaking Communications

  • Brian Caudle

  • Debra Nelson - Head of Corporate Communications, Brasfield & Gorrie

​

We have meetings on the second Thursday in January, February, May, June, July, August, September, and November. During these meetings, we hear from renowned industry experts who provide helpful information and skills training. Monthly meetings also provide networking opportunities and encouragement from others in the communications field.

 

​AMP Members can attend monthly meetings for free. Non-members can attend for a fee of $5. In April, we have our annual Communications Contest Awards Banquet where our communications contest winners are announced, our Communicator of Achievement is recognized and new officers are installed.

 

​In October and March, we hold intensive professional-development workshops. In December we host a holiday party.
