Two book events, first weekend of October!
Hello everyone, I'd like to invite you to come to two exciting book events this weekend. First, we will be hosting a book signing for Greg Cochran . His first novel, 'Saving Grace' has recently been published. ----Greg will be here Saturday, October 4th, from 2pm to 4pm. Come meet him, discuss the book and Pacifica life.----
Here is a brief synopsis:
"While visiting his hometown, Pacifica, Ca., Jake Brodie is visited by an angel. The angel explains to Jake that there is a task that he must perform, and that he will need to stay in Pacifica a while longer than he had planned. Without explanation of what the task is, the angel leaves Jake, who finds himself transported back to 1938!
With no money, odd clothing, nowhere to go, and no idea of what his task is, Jake finds himself in a very different town than the one he is familiar with. While wandering the streets of the sleepy coastal community, Jake meets his own great-grandfather, and without revealing his identity, takes a job working for him. He also meets his own father as an infant, and comes to blows with his ne're-do-well grandfather, John. As the weeks pass, Jake is taken in as a member of the family..."
===================================
Next, on Sunday October 5th you are invited to attend the family fun event for the new children's book 'Mask Parade' by local authors Stephanie Trelogan and Katherine Armstrong.
