The launch for the New Beginnings anthology is right around the corner, and I'm looking forward to it. A portion of the proceeds from sales of this extremely varied collection are going to support Share Family and Community Services. New Beginnings and it's support of Share are the brain children of Erik D'Souza, author and now publisher in the Lower Mainland's Tri-Cities area.
On Saturday, 20 July at the Port Moody Inlet Theatre and Galleria, there will be readings in three blocks, beginning at 2 PM and going till 5 PM. I'll be reading from my story, "Mother of the Star." in the 3-4 PM block.
"Mother of the Star" follows the strange birth and troubled life of a rock star through the eyes of a mother he never knew. Careful attention to detail will tell you what star we are speaking of, and most of the story, but surely not all of it, is true.
Join us and enjoy an afternoon of literature and munchies.
