Sunday, December 5, take a break from whatever else you’re busy doing and treat yourself to a little over an hour of very special holiday music and stories!

The Bayside Singers will be performing at 2:00 at the Inn at Ilwaco, and again at 5:00 at the Oysterville Church. Admission is free, and yes, I’ll be there reading three of my favorite personal holiday stories as lead-ins to three of their songs.

It’s the first time I’ve been associated with this group, and boy, oh boy, do they have some amazing vocal talent! You’re going to really love this! I’ll see you there!

And here’s another little shameless plug: If you’re in Astoria on Saturday, December 4, between 1-3 p.m., please stop by 3 Cups Coffee House, under the bridge in the old Finnish Meat Market building, where I’ll be doing my only Oregon book signing this year. It’s a great place to relax, have a wonderful cup of coffee, and perhaps do a little holiday shopping at the same time! Come multi-task—you know you want to!
