YOU
GLAD?

While in Phoenix recently, I discovered that our hosts were lucky to have an orange tree in their back yard.  Every morning I went out back to the sweet smell of orange blossoms and the overwhelmingly loud buzzing of bees.  I am inspired by the smell and sound.  I wonder if I can get an orange tree to grow in my Smoky Mountain yard?  This next Call is from California — where they have no problem getting orange trees to grow either. 

Check out this Call for Entries from Sebastopol Center for the Arts (in California) for Bibliophoria II.  The entry fee is a little high for non-members, but you’ve gotta love book shows.  Book shows are less common than you think so the risk could be worth it.  Take a chance…
