Northwest Local
Author Fair

I will sell and sign books on Saturday May 20 at the Northwest Local Author Fair in Beaverton. Come visit me and other authors from Beaverton and surrounding communities, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the Beaverton City Library, 12375 SW 5th Street, Beaverton, OR 97005.

Be among the first folks to acquire a special edition copy of my latest poetry collection, Food ♦ Family ♦ Friends.

The library is across the street from the Beaverton Farmers Market (open 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.) so come early to grab breakfast and fresh produce before the author fair.
Food ♦ Family ♦ Friends
My fourth poetry collection, Food ♦ Family ♦ Friends releases next month. (See the promo below.)

When I started pairing poems with photographs to create poetry broadsides on Pinterest, I discovered my photographs and poems often create synergy. So, I included ten photographs to illustrate a few of the collection's 46 poems. Ebooks and special edition print books have color photographs.

Pre-order your ebook copies now or come to the Northwest Local Author Fair to purchase a special edition print copy. Standard edition print books with black and white photographs will be available to order on May 21.



What food you eat, whether your family nurtures or abuses you, and how friends fit into your life determine whether you live in despair or delight, cringing or cavorting through your days. The poems in Food ♦ Family ♦ Friends capture the marvelous and the malignant of all three.
