Palmyra teamed with the Alling Coverlet Museum in
Palmyra to present "Books, Authors and Friends," on
Apr. 17 and 18.

new authors and reunited with authors from past events.
I enjoyed the energy, commaderie and lively discussions.

is about self discovery and personal growth. I must read this!
A second book, "Love-Abouts," explores daily rituals that may
enrich your life and deepen relationships. This book makes a
wonder gift.

Brooks and I traded books at the fair. Of course
Brooks also wrote "The Ten Thousand Things."
Both novels center around the intrigue of the drug

deliciously fed! And more who displayed their business
products and crafts:
