Susan Wingate Signs Her New Release: Easy as Pie at Bobby's Diner (Book-signing) |
 BLASTING THE MARKET: A How-To for Bolstering Publication Credits
For writers with a desire to get published, BLASTING THE MARKET gives workshop attendees the tools to pursue their dreams. An internet-interactive, practical, business-oriented, hands-on workshop. Topics include getting your work to the right people in the publishing industry, targeting your market, managing your submissions, and building a strong platform. Participants should bring paper, writing tools, and if possible, a laptop computer.
Susan's latest release, Easy as Pie at Bobby's Diner, is the second in her "Bobby's Diner" series. Running a diner isn't always a piece of cake. Especially when an old "friend" starts flirting with your new beau. Georgette lost her first husband to another woman, and isn't going to stand for it this time. But then the flirtatious friend goes missing. And hints start to surface that the man they're quarreling over has a dangerous past. It's going to take courage, community, and the help of friends for Georgette to survive the dangers ahead and discover new strength and belonging.

Rich Faletto Signs His Memoir: Four-Eleven! Planes, Pulaskis and Forest Fires (Book-signing) |
 On Topic This Forest Fire Season with Four-Eleven! Planes, Pulaskis and Forest Fires
The call comes over the radio: "Four-Eleven!" and fire-fighters go on instant alert. Rich Faletto writes of his experiences as a Chelan fire-fighter, along with other stories of our Lake Chelan country, in his engaging, informative memoir, Four-Eleven! Planes, Pulaskis and Forest Fires: a memoir of trail maintenance, firefighting and flying on the Chelan Ranger District, Wenatchee National Forest. Called "a well-written, fascinating read" by the Wenatchee World, this adventure-packed history is dedicated to all men and women who have lost their lives on western fire lines.

 Gregory Nokes Signs Massacred for Gold: The Chinese in Hells Canyon
Hells Canyon, Oregon — the deepest canyon in North America — beheld the 1887 massacre of over thirty Chinese miners. No charges were brought until nearly a year later, when one of the killers confessed. A quick trial brought no convictions or punishment, and then key documents went missing for one hundred years. Massacred for Gold traces a journalist's journey to expose details of the massacre and to understand how one of the worst of the many crimes against Chinese laborers in the American West was for so long lost to history.

 The Raven's Gift: A Scientist, a Shaman, and Their Remarkable Journey Through the Siberian Wilderness
In The Raven's Gift, noted scientist and kayak adventurer Jon Turk undertakes a journey of spiritual healing. Turk has kayaked around Cape Horn and paddled across the Pacific Ocean, retracing the voyages of ancient peoples. But the strangest trip he ever took was his journey as a man of science into the realm of the spiritual. Framed by high adventure across the vast and forbidding Siberian landscape, The Raven's Gift creates a vision of natural and spiritual realms interwoven by one man's awakening.

Three Author Book Buzz!
Meet three new authors, and enter our free prize-drawing! Jon Turk, long-time kayak adventurer, signs his new release about spiritual awakening in the Siberian wilderness. Beverly Pressey, author of Simple and Savvy Strategies for Creating Healthy Eaters, shows us that raising children with healthy emotional relationships with food can be fun — and simpler than expected! Amber Kizer writes two very different young adult series: the Gert Garibaldi series, a contemporary, frank, and funny journey of an American high school student through the perils of growing up; and paranormal Meridian, following a girl who shepherds dying souls to the afterlife.

Craig Welch signs his true wildlife crime tale, Shell Games: Rogues, Smugglers, and the Hunt for Nature's Bounty (Book-signing) |
 Shell Games: Rogues, Smugglers, and the Hunt for Nature's Bounty, by Craig Welch
A delightfully offbeat and utterly true cops-and-robbers tale, set in the rough-and-tumble heart of one of America's strangest subcultures — a double-crossing world where tough men and women fight turf wars over shellfish.
Craig Welch drops readers overboard into the frigid waters of Puget Sound, home to the magnificent geoduck (pronounced "gooey duck"), which now trades for millions of dollars on the black market. Outlaw scuba divers with souped-up boats and night-vision goggles steal geoducks from the ocean floor, dodging police and keeping a wary eye on orca, sharks and half-ton sea lions; but the greatest dangers — from arson to hit men — come from rival poachers out to eliminate competition and stake their own claims.
Shell Games is a unique blend of natural history and crime caper—a real-life drama about the theft of some of the world's most unusual creatures, set in one of the planet's most beautiful places.
