Art Embraces Words Halloween Event
On Saturday, October 26th, I had the honor of participating in the Lamorinda Art Council’s Art Embraces Words Halloween Event. The program held at the Lafayette Library and Learning Center featured three local authors and two artists. I joined my fellow California Writer’s Club authors, Marlene Dotterer and Jill Hedgecock, for this fun Halloween-themed presentation.
Dressed as Star Fleet Captain Hindra, Marlene Dotterer read from her sci-fi short story “Caught in an Alien Ocean.”
As the Mad Hatter, I read an excerpt from my debut fantasy novel, Bedlam Bewitched—a charm-filled tale of mayhem set in a chaotically-enchanted bookstore.
Jill Hedgecock, disguised as the titular Doberman from her supernatural ghost trilogy, read a haunting passage from her novel, Between Shadow’s Eyes.
We were joined by local artists Olivia Falk and Gini Graham Scott.
I had a fabulous time. And we all won prizes for our costumes.
Thank you to AEW co-chairs Linda Hartmann, Elana O’Loskey, and Bill Carmel for putting together this wonderful program!
