Bonfires & Other Vigils


Book Description

Any event can be a vigil: a walk by a river, a flu shot at Walgreens, an hour spent by a bird feeder attracting mostly cardinals. A vigil means you are keeping watch, and these poems are watching the world around them—and the worlds beneath those worlds, too. The poems in this collection pull from dreams and apparitions as much as they do reality: a woman in a house, a coffee mug, a book of matches, a load of unfolded laundry, a goldfish won at a county fair. All is fair game. Bonfires & Other Vigils celebrates the watching in unconventional ways. Readers can expect to revel in the elusive wonder of haziness, otherworldliness, and wildness of examining life through lenses of vigilant dreaming.

The City That Waits To Die


Book Description

The City That Waits To Die is a historic fiction account of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and its impact on to intertwined fictional families, the McCurrens and the Pritchards. Since the California Gold Rush, they have shared a bond begun by the fellowship of their patriarchs, Finney McCurren and Lucas Pritchard. The story tells of the McCurren and Pritchard actions and impressions of their ravaged world during a twenty-four hour period centered upon the 1906 earthquake. There is fire, peril, and missing family and friends, a train depot explosion and a hurried trek to San Francisco on stolen horseback. I was hungry for authentic detail and poured over as many resources as I could find, attempting to make The City That Waits To Die richer, to make it real. In addition to residing in San Francisco for ten years and still visiting regularly, I spent two years researching the 1906 details of San Francisco.
