New FWA Sarasota Writers Group Leader


I'm pleased to announce Ernie Ovitz as the Florida Writers Association Group Leader for the Sarasota Writers Group.  Ernie has been a regular member of our group for several years, and recently published his first book, "The Seventh King." 


Ernie studied architecture, with a degree from Georgia Tech, and served as a Naval Officer deployed to the Mediterranean. His career has been in business and real estate. He is a published author and a member of FWA since 2013. He has had a lifelong passion for history.
I have had the pleasure of working with this great group, and with Rod DiGruttolo, co-leader and chief cat-herder, for the last several years. I will still be attending the meetings. but as a regular member. 

Welcome Ernie! You will be a great leader for our diverse, eclectic - and talented - group.

George
