This month the Shebeen Club welcomes two-time author and tax specialist Sylvia Lim for an educational presentation on tax tips to help practicing writers, editors and publishers get ready for T-Day. Can you deduct the laptop? Maybe. The Editor’s Association Membership? Probably. The blonde wig and sunglasses? Sorry, JT.
 
Potted bio:

Sylvia Lim, CFP, CGA, is the author of two books – the “Personal Budgeting Kit” (2nd edition, 2005), a step by step guide to methodically organize one’s day to day finances; and “Finances After 55”, a retirement and eldercare planning guide to help people live a full and successful retired life.
You can reach Sylvia through her website: www.SylviaLim.com

Famous dead celebrities celebrating birthdays today include Charlotte Bronte, poet Phyllis McGinley, and Canada’s own immortal Madame Benoit, so the dress code is accountant, repressed petticoat feminist, emo librarian, or crazy Quebecois chef. Chacun à son gout!
