“My Runaway Summer” takes place right in OC! Check it out!

Spectacular Saturday

Independent Bookstore Day

Such magical places. Shelved with 1,000s of treasures and endless escapes . . .

Run by phenomenal proprietors and staff who cherish and appreciate their wares, customers, and communities.

“I say a town isn’t a town without a bookstore. It may call itself a town, but unless it’s got a bookstore, it knows it’s not foolin’ a soul” (Neil Gaiman).

Our small town, Lewistown, Pennsylvania, is blessed with The Crooked Shelf Bookshop, LLC. An incredible journey into countless other worlds.

Many thanks to proprietor, Kelly Runk Rivera for making Lewistown an even more wonderful place.

And while you’re downtown, check out Snowflake's on the Square . . . Another wonderful experience.

“Bookshops are places of endless entertainment and renewal – what’s not to love?” (Andy Griffiths).

Also shouting out to other Independent Bookstores that I love . . . cornerstones of their communities:

When you are near the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania, please visit Laurie at Second Chapter Books Ligonier for great reads and a warm friendly atmosphere.

And . . . When you are in or near Ocean City NJ 08226, please stop by BIRDS EYE VIEW Gallery at 810 Asbury Avenue . . . Books and so much more.

And meet the phenomenal Karen Boss Jennings . . . Owner with a huge heart.

Along with books, her shop within Stainton's is packed with tasteful gift items . . . Including, “My Runaway Summer.”

And please support the other Independent Bookstores and friendly local shops around the country (and world) that make towns special places . . .

Thanks and blessings to Independent Bookstore owners, local shops, and their staff. You rock!

And thank you friends for sharing these moments. I hope your weekend rocks.

Peace, Love, and Rock 'n' Roll!!!

Prayers, Kindness, and Blessings for our friends and fellow human beings . . .

Friends who are suffering…and their caregivers…

Those devastated by disasters and war…

Those who are traveling…Happy Trails…

Those struggling for their rights, freedom, and dignity…

And all those…Suffering from depression, anxiety, and other pain…Physical or emotional.

Kindness, love, and prayers for all of God’s Children…

And…Always…Prayers of Gratitude! Thank you, God!

Thank you all for your prayers…The ultimate power of unity for all of humankind!

Peace, Love, and Rock 'n' Roll!!!
