-Next, Terry Kroeten presented a summary of various foci that we could consider using to direct our next traversal of the Canon. It was decided that for the next meeting, and probably for additional meetings in the future, we would proceed through the novels and stories in the Canon in the order of publication. And for each item, one or more members would lead the discussion using a particular focus, perhaps one selected from those Terry suggested, or perhaps another. At the next meeting (August 2022) the group will discuss **A Study in Scarlet**, focusing on the locations in the novel.
