Jove Belle is out flinging around the wilderness and Andi Marquette is out flinging around California, but she managed to check in with all y’all!
21 August: Author Kate Christie stopped by to chat about her books, including her latest, Game Time, and to talk about how important soccer (football to many of you) has been in her life. She’s also doing a giveaway! Two ebooks!

25 August: Author and regular Women and Wordster Renée Bess discussed character-driven stories and stories in which characters have to deal with political and social currents of the day. Renée enjoys reading and writing stories like the latter, and notes that her book, The Rules, deals with racial identity and conflicts caused by colorism and class differences.

And Andi highly recommends this stop in her personal weird America tour, The Bigfoot Discovery Museum in Felton, CA. Srsly. How can you NOT want to see this?
Also, the awe-inspiring redwood trees. Andi stopped off at the Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, right down the road from the Bigfoot museum. Make it a day, people!
