Oops, Your Sunday Poem-ish on Monday

Holy Cow, had our annual El Chorro Off-Leash Dog Park fund-raising event yesterday so Poem Sunday just went Pfffttt. 

So, instead of a poem, there's this in Sunday's Tribune: "Coalesce Bookstore celebrates 40 years with a book of poetry." Coalesce has now published "Where Our Palms Rest," a collection of poems by four local writers -- Beverly Boyd of Los Osos, Carol Alma McPhee of San Luis Obispo, Joann Rusch of Los Osos and Bonnie Young of Arroyo Grande. Photos by R. David Bowlus.

Coalesce will be holding a reception and book-signing on Sunday, Oct 20, 1-3 p.m. in the Chapel behind the store. The bookstore is located 845 Main Street in Morro Bay. The authors will be on hand to autograph your book.  Books are $16.

So, support your Local Poets and celebrate Coalesce as a [actual real paper and print] publisher -- an amazing undertaking in this e-book age  -- and support one of the few independent bookstores still standing (Los Osos' Volumes of Pleasure is another), and head down to Coalesce to get your autographed copy.

It's our annual fundraiser, which donations keep the park maintained and looking great. And hope the poets have a good turnout.
