Rockaway Writers Rendezvous

A collection of original poems and short stories featuring the winners of the 2024 Rockaway Writers Rendezvous, an April annual writing event in Rockaway Beach, Oregon USA.

​

My story, RED SKY AT NIGHT, RUBY DELIGHT, won 2nd Place for Fiction and is included.

​

Here's what the editors had to say:

​

"The magic of writing and the mysterious journey it takes is on! It truly is the evolution of a writer’s soul.

​

We build the characters from our hearts, experiences, and observations of the world around us, pouring our minds and souls into every word. !

Our dream is to inspire creativity and recognition for aspiring writers of all ages.

 

We aim to raise scholarship funds for Neah-Kah-Nie High School students in Rockaway Beach pursuing writing careers.

​

After much hard work from a generous volunteer team, we are pleased to present the first Rockaway Writers Rendezvous Anthology."

Each tale references a food or drink, and at the end of the story is the recipe for you to try. So grab your apron, dust off your cooking skills, and prepare for a gastronomic-literary adventure.

​

My short story, SFOGLIATELLE, is included.
