“Notre Dame Women Connect” Book Club
Thanks to Marybeth Dillon-Butler for selecting The Talking Stick for the Feb. 4th meeting of her book club, Notre Dame Women Connect. I’ll be Zooming in to join them at 4:30 PST
Past Events
- I was truly honored to join Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley, local author and comedian Brian Copeland, and author Gail Tsukiyama for the Assistance League’s Author’s Luncheon! It was a sold-out event and we raised a lot of money for a worthwhile cause.
- On November 9th, I gave a talk at the new Peninsula Book Collaborative.
- Thank you to the Barnes and Noble in Corte Madera (California ;-), for hosting a signing on on July 27, 2024.
- And thank you to Barnes and Noble San Mateo for the signing on September 21st!
- Towne Center Books chose The Talking Stick for their monthly book club–a novelist’s dream come true!
- I spoke at the Napa Valley California Writers Club on June 12, 2024
Good people, a good time. I had to take Uber there, thanks to a fractured wrist!

The Talking Stick Launch
…at Book Passage’s Ferry Building site was a great success. The weather was perfect, the view sublime, the food… well, pretty darn good. Special thanks to Gayatri, and the whole staff.
