10 JULY MEETING NOTES

Seven people attended: Benafsha A. (welcome back!), Burt (chapters from The Class of 1942), Donna R., Glenda, Lance (a revised chapter from the KDA Riviera Project), Leighanne, and Rosie.

NEWS & NOTES

We liked the Marketplace Corner Bakery enough to give it another try on 17 July. It’s at 13652 Jamboree Road in Irvine (at the corner with El Camino, in the former Romano’s building).

Rosie enjoyed the Historical Novel Society National Conference in Las Vegas, especially since her pitch sessions with agents yielded four requests for full copies of In Arcadia Ego. Congratulations!

Upcoming author events for the next week:

• Saturday, July 12, 10 a.m.: Heather B. Moore, “Finding Yourself Among the Words” and “Self-Publishing: A-Zs of Creating a Professional Product” (virtual for OC Romance Writers)
• Sunday, July 13, 2 p.m.: Sisters in Crime LA presents Alex Kenna, “Fact and Fiction” (in person at The Last Bookstore, 4437 Lankershim Blvd., Studio City)
• Tuesday, July 15, 5:30 p.m.: Cristina LePort, Change of Heart (in person at the Rancho Santa Margarita Library, 30902 La Promesa, Rancho Santa Margarita)
