Book Reading Tour - 2019

On Saturday, June 8, 2019 fellow author, Janet Dunnett and I gave our 'Sunset Love' presentation to approximately 60 members of the Sidney Branch of the National Association of Federal Retirees [NAFR]. This was the first of five speaking engagements we had lined up over the summer months.

Janet and I joined forces after we realized that we had both written books about the same topic ... love in life's third act ... but from very different perspectives. My book, A MATTER OF ISSUE, weaves a story of romantic love between two seniors, while Janet's book, THE DWINDLING, is about familial love and caring for parents on the 'edge of life'.  We put the presentation together last year and presented it at both the Nanaimo and Courtenay branches of the NAFR, at their quarterly meetings.  It was so well received that we reached out to other NAFR branches, as well as Island Probus clubs and the University Women's Club.  In the process, we got to meet some wonderful people, and tour this amazing Island that we live on.
