What a beautiful day it has been today. Surely Spring has sprung.  Warms my heart too to browse the beautiful displays of art at the Mermaid's Purse. Yep, we have some fine shops on the island. Y'all come check them out. Visited Quarter Moon last night and listened to some fine live music--ahh-- great ambiance there. Two very cool places to spend some time on Topsail AND they both carry my books!

QUOTES: "Music has charms to soothe the savage breast"- William Congreve

"Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you have one."-Stella Adler

WRITING TIP: The arts, in any form, refresh my soul and keeps me writing. Stuck in a slump, play some music or spend a couple of hours contemplating your favorite art form.
