Coming Your Way: The Almost-Saints!

 Makes the perfect holiday gift! 

Trains are flying by, and so are the shopping days until Christmas! One week from tonight, I'll be reading with Susanne Paola, Annette Spaulding-Convy, and Lorraine Healy at Elliott Bay Books in Seattle from St. Peters' B-List: Contemporary Poems Inspired by the Saints, edited by Mary Ann Miller and published by Ave Maria Press earlier this year. 


A fast train to heaven ... or?

There are many decisions regarding where to hang out and/or spend your $$ for gifts this holiday season, but what better place than your local independent bookstore, Elliott Bay Books? There's a cafe in-store with delish yummies and drinks, plus tons of books to browse, and many cozy chairs.

Also, for all you lapsed and practicing Catholics, you know what December 8 is! Yes, it's the Feast Day of the Immaculate Conception, which makes it an especially perfect night for pious poetry with more than a hint of the fallen.
