Contests

CWC member Steve Latner has published a book on Amazon KDP, This Taxi For Hire. It’s a murder mystery thriller set on the Peninsula in 1979. There are many references to restaurants, bars, and streets that long time residents of the area will recognize. Steve reports that the reviews have been very good.

Martha Clark Scala’s memoir, Assembling a Life, Claiming the Artist in My Father (and Myself) is now available in both premium softcover, and as an AppleBooks e-book (viewable on Apple devices). In James Hanna’s recent review of this poignant and colorful book, he describes the household where Martha grew up as “a place of magic and divinity. A divinity to be found in the resilience of family members, the joy of household pets, and the creative juices that produced her father’s many paintings. In these, she finds a faith unencumbered by ritual and church-bound conceits. And this may be the purest faith of all.” The full text of Hanna’s review can be found at Martha’s website.
