You can order STORIED STUFF, the first paperback collection of Storied Stuff essays and pix. All proceeds go to assist not for profits. Our reading to a packed house at the Glencoe Library on July 9 was a big success. You can view the video—easy to dip in and out of—here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nx3tTqsJ_EI
