AUTHORS FOR A CAUSE

AUTHORS FOR A CAUSE

On Sunday, March 8, 2009, I’ll be joining fellow authors T.K. Marion, Mickey Getty, Sue Lange and Carol Haile at the GoggleWorks in Reading for an all-day book-signing event – proceeds to be donated to the GoggleWorks (that’s the “Cause”, you see). With Saint Patrick’s Day less than a week away, the theme will be vaguely Irish, with a certain amount of Irish-style shenanigans to accompany the literary stuff. If you’re within range of 201 Washington Street, Reading, any time between 11:00 A.M. and 4:30 P.M. on the 8th, stop by. If you buy a book, you’ll not only be supporting one of Reading’s cultural treasures, but also you’ll qualify for a raffle prize. For more information, see www.goggleworks.org .

MIDWINTER DREAMS

MIDWINTER DREAMS

If indeed a picture is worth a thousand words, this one speaks eloquently. I gazed at it for a long time the other day, after my still-running car automatically locked itself while I was chipping ice off the windshield. Pictured are the Curmudgeon’s Son, his long-suffering wife Eve, and good friends Dennis and Penny Murphy, on a sunny day in Sea Isle City, New Jersey.
