Christine, I wasn’t sure how to reach out to you directly. Joyce Eide was my friend in the mid-80s in La Jolla before she moved to Seattle. I have a large lovely pastel drawing she did of the red-leaf banana leaves outside of my little bungalow.

Randall, thank you for your kind comment. I appreciate your support of my writing. It’s my alternate life if I had studied music seriously as a young child. I just played the cello, and later in life the guitar and flute. My grandfather was a renowned trumpet soloist in symphony’s. My father played the trombone professionally. I get to be a superstar in this book. In th US and Germany. Another teaser.
