My pal Gina Cameron and I got together Lestats Hillcrest yesterday afternoon to catch up with each other’s stories and to color in our new coloring books “When Old Dames Get Together and Other Confessions of a Ripe Old Age,” with poems by Judy Dykstra-Brown and illustrations by Isidro Xilonzochitl. What a hoot! We had so much fun. Remember how calming coloring can be? You can do it too. Here’s info for Judy’s book: Amazon
Look for Judy Reeve’s new book coming out. I’ll give a link when it is available. She’s also conducting a writer’s workshop at the wonderful resort across the lake that I published photos of earlier—Quinta San Carlos. If anyone is interested in coming down to a beautiful part of Mexico and participating in her Wild Women Writing Workshop, I can furnish info on that, too. She’s conducted them for us for six years, I think, in La Manzanilla, on the beach near Colima, in Puerto Vallarta, Nueva Vallarta, Acapulco and at Quinta San Carlos. (If I left any out, please remind me.) This year we’ve convinced her she needs to do an additional one for others who want the experience. Let me know if you are interested and I’ll pass the info on to Judy.
Hi Gina! Hope you are coming down again this year. You need to help us in our Wilding!!!!
Anyone else who has ordered the Old Dames book, please send me a shot of your response.

Much as I enjoy your blog posts, Judy, I drew the line on acquiring more books about 15 years ago because I know I won’t have enough time left to read those I have.

But, I’d like to send a copy to Jackie! So send me your mailing address, please. I can order it from Amazon Great Britain, I think.. You don’t have to read the book or even color in it, but you have to take the photo of Jackie doing so…or acting out one of the poems!!!! No reading involved.
