Hawaii Writers Guild Announces New Venue for Writers’ Voices
Hawaii Writers Guild will start the new year with a new venue for its Writers’ Voices authors readings. Beginning with its first presentation of 2020, on Thursday, February 13, Writers Voices will be held at Tutu’s House in Waimea. Tutu’s house is located at 64-1032 Mamalahoa Hwy, Suite 305.
Readers at the February Writers’ Voices will include Peter Georgas, Amy Elizabeth Gordon, Dave Fouts and Jada Rufo.
Peter Georgas, who divides his time between Minnesota and the Big Island, will read a passage from The Emoji Games, his sixth novel, published last July. Georgas describes his book as a “suspense thriller about artificial intelligence and cutting-edge science that impacts the way we look at life and its creation.”
Amy Elizabeth Gordon, who lives up the Kohala Mountain Road, will read a passage called "Eye of the Storm" an excerpt from her new memoir/self-empowerment book Moonshot: Aim High, Dive Deep, Live an Extraordinary Life. "This is where the magic happens for me,” Amy says. “In the eye of the storm, I find the calm. …I roar through the raging red effort of struggle into a clear blue sky of effortless existence."
Dave Fouts, from Honokaa, will read “The Sin Never Sinned Before,” a story from his short story collection The Store by the Sea. When a place called The Hall offers a presentation titled “The Sin Never Sinned Before,” the rigid citizens of a nearby town are outraged. Nevertheless, 12 people attend to find out what this sin is. Will their lives be changed forever?
Jada Rufo, from Waimea, will read Poems Dedicated to Mom, a suite of poems dedicated to her mother, Caridad Rosalie Talaro Rufo, a long time Waimea resident who died last year. Titles of the three poems included are: “Above the Clouds,” “Home or House” and “A Christmas Card to Heaven.”
Come join us at Tutu's House to launch our reading at its new location. Readings are free and open to the public. If you have any questions, call Joy at 238-0551 or email her at joyfisher38@yahoo.com
