SILVER SISTERS Denise van Ven MYSTERIES Morgan’s Corner (Cont’d) former Cirque du Soleil performer and entrepreneur Vital Germaine (Flying Without a Net). As a WSN Board member, I introduced Vital. Guest artists Andy Williams and Svetlana Miller used the authors’ words as inspiration to create works of art. This is a very popular event, and Painted Stories VI will be held on July 31, 2016 in the Jewel Box Theater at Clark County Library at 2:00 pm. In June I’ll be heading down to Los Angeles to give a master class on Characterization. The one for Anthem Authors was so successful, it has been expanded into a 4 hour interactive course, and will be at Los Angeles Valley College on June 17. More details will follow. Updates will be on the West Coast Writers Conferences website late in May or early June. REVIEWS GREATLY APPRECIATED I will also be joining 4 other local Las Vegas authors at a book signing at the really cool bookseller—The Writers Block, 1020 Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm on Saturday, May 28. The book I’ll be signing is Bumping Off Fat Vinny. Unfortunately the schedule has slipped again for the release of the 4th Silver Sisters escapade, Diamonds In The Dumpster. Fans of Goldie and Godiva, Flossie and Sterling keep asking when it will be published, and we are now looking at early June. Have patience. It will be worth the wait.
