"I have found that music allows years to fold like an accordion over each other,
so I guess one doesn’t feel the passage of time as much."
Amy Grant

Learn about protecting your community. From 8:30 to 10:30 pm stay for lawn games, and Spiderman into the Spiderverse. La Plaza Park, 60 West Cotati Ave Cotati, CA.
A fun opportunity to meet local writers and many of Redwood Writers board members too. I will be there chatting about our club and selling my mystery book on the second weekend, August 10 and 11.
