About Turtleflock LLC
and Sue Mosher

 

Hi! I'm Sue Mosher, and Turtleflock LLC is my private consulting firm.

I recently received my M.A. degree in Engaged Humanities from Pacifica Graduate Institute. My course of study emphasized depth psychology, mythology, and their practical application to the communications, environmental, and justice issues that challenge us today.

I hope to apply what I've learned at the intersection of spirit and action, building on my experience in helping people get more out of their software and in guiding conversations within the communities that I value. Possible engagements include writing and editing projects, online or in-person training, and group facilitation.

If you share some of my concerns for our world and would like to keep in touch, I encourage you to connect via LinkedIn:

If you're in the Washington, DC, area, join my Meetup group to explore local labyrinths and other sacred spaces.

Please see below if you are looking for help with an Outlook programming project.  

Public witness

Here are links to sermons and homilies that I've preached at Universalist National Memorial Church in Washington, DC:

  • Remarks for Ash Wednesday 2009
  • Ritual 101: Dry Bones - What we say and do can build a container to hold the unbearable, the unspeakable, and the unknowable as we explore together the mystery of life.
  • An Inner Garden - The special places that you have visited and cherished can form the foundation of an inner space for refuge, repose, and creativity.
  • Recoloration - Part of our work as spiritual people is to understand the meaning that religious and other symbols have, not just for ourselves but for others.
  • Holy Hospitality - The active practice of hospitality as a spiritual discipline can bring healing and richness to both guest and host.
  • The Yeast Factor - To learn where you might have your greatest effect on the world, begin where you are right now.
  • The Path to Joy -  Celebrating the simple, ordinary things in life may not always come naturally to us, but it can make us strong and give us joy.

Letters to the editor published in the Washington Post:

  • A Renewable Pride - America's optimistic spirit is rooted not a false abundance of unlimited resources, but the reality of boundless inventiveness, curiosity and drive.
  • The Registration ChallengeWhy does it take a 33-page form to tell Spanish-speaking citizens how to register to vote?

I have earned a Most Valuable Professional award from Microsoft every year since 1994, for my volunteer work in helping other people use Microsoft products. 

Looking for Outlook help?

If you need help with an Outlook issue, I recommend visiting the web sites above, which have articles on how to use and program for Outlook and links to forums where you can ask for help on a specific problem.

I am no longer taking on Outlook programming projects. If you are looking to hire someone to assist you with a development project, you can send a message to outlook-dev-hire@yahoogroups.com with details, including the Outlook versions to be supported. After the moderator approves your message, it will go out to a list of Outlook developers, who will respond to you directly if they're interested. (Note that you will receive no confirmation that your message has gone to the list.)

If you are an experienced Outlook developer and would like to be a member of the outlook-dev-hire mailing list, please visit the list's web page or send a request to outlook-dev-hire-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.

What is a Turtleflock?

Well, for one thing, turtles are a lot easier to herd than cats.

I have a friend who used to point suddenly to the sky and say, "Look! A flock of turtles!" So, "Turtleflock" also captures that element of the unexpected.

Mostly though, "Turtleflock" a testament to the tenacity of one particular turtle, named Henry, pictured below, who seemed to think that if he just climbed high enough on his rocks, maybe ... just maybe he could fly.
