I got inspired while listening to the Democracy Now coverage fo the State of the Union Address on the way to work. So, during my morning meeting, instead of making notes, I sketched out my own. Check it:
I wrote an article about Chinese-concrentration-camp-victim-turned-self-empowerment-life-coac- for-women, Bambi Shen. Very sweet woman and a powerful story. You can check out the article in the latest issue of Evolving Magazine, either hard copy or onliune: http://issuu.com/evolving/docs/january2012/1#print
Had a dream last night. This was kind of it, kind of . . . thought about calling it The Presence of Mind but wanted to go more with The Treachery of Mind, based on Magritte's the Treachery of Images. So there you go.
'Tis an examination of reality and perception, what we perceive versus what is. The mechanics behind perception, reception, analysis, etc. It was an interesting dream, to say the least.
RED MASS is now available on Shaman's Market.com, the leading web marketplace for shamanic supplies, books, music, etc. Thank you Bryan Bigelow and the Shaman's Market crew for the support!
Purchasing from Shaman's Market is a good way to go as this is a merchant that supports the work and life of the Q'ero Indians in Peru, the sacred ancestors of the Inca. I have a great love for Q'ero, so go to Shaman's Market and spend some money for a good cause: www.shamansmarket.com
Here are some pics of the first official RED MASS Book Signing! Thank you everyone for coming out! And thank you Barbara Criswell, John, and Mark from Aquarius, such wonderful and gracious hosts!
Signage at the front of the store!
My daughter Ella helping me set up...she was very particular about how the books should be set up!
There's me waiting for customers with a ghost. To the right is "Seeing Red", a painting by Susan Sykes inspired by RED MASS. To the left is my new ad for the RED MASS sequel: GHOST DANCE.
Me and my chilluns.
And the crowds start coming in....
Pretty fun time! Lots of good people and conversation! If you missed the event, Aquarius purchased some copies to put on their shelf! Thank you all for your support!
I will be at Aquarius Bookstore in Kansas City from 3pm to 5pm on Sunday, October 9th. I will be doing a little reading from the book, Q & A, and then signing copies. Bring a friend and you can enter a drawing to win a FREE copy!
My friends Clint and Cassie Krause release their next edition of Don't Walk in Winter Wood. A short story contribution by....me. Yay! Support your local independent RPG genius by buying this game!
