So, what’s your legacy? After all your work, what type of legacy do you want to leave? Don’t wait and don’t ditch everything in your office, including projects you started, published or didn’t publish. What possibilities exist for “dead files,” or the dreams you have for young writers? Hear about “what, why, where and how” to address the concept of legacy. Whether your gift is money, another way of helping writers, or a donation to an archive, your gifts should reflect you, your priorities and experiences.
