Writing Career Coach Teresa here. I just received an invitation from the Media Center. I send hearty congratulations to the Local Heroes. I know one of the heroes–BARDI ROSMAN KOODRIN! This is the same Bardi who is the Literary Arts Director at the San Mateo County Fair; the same Bardi who writes for the San Bruno Patch, the same Bardi who works so hard for California Writers Club; the same Bardi who got me to say “yes, it would be an honor” to sponsoring a writing contest focusing on “The Immigrant Experience.” A thousand cheers to Hero Bardi !!!!!

Thanks so much for those kind words, Teresa. It was such an honor to be among amazing people active in their community, and to accept the 2011 Midpeninsula Media Center Local Hero Award for my own contribution.
It was also deeply moving to watch my filmed segment, the first time I’d seen any of the footage. I had to take a deep and purposeful breath before being able to stand up at the microphone and speak my first words of appreciation!
Dear Bardi,
You are an inspiration and a treasure. I am so very happy for you. Any chance you can get a copy of the video and post a clip (or photos) on facebook?
Big hugs and a thousand cheers!
Sincerely,
Writing Career Coach Teresa LeYung Ryan
