Some Upcoming Events to Put On Your Calendar!

	An Inspiring Chapter of Local History! Saturday April 28 \| 2:00PM - 3:00PM Join us as author Jennifer Chambers discusses the dynamic partnership of Abigail Scott Duniway and Susan B. Anthony as they toured Oregon and Washington fighting for women's rights, changing the Northwest and the country forever. In the early 1870's, Abigail Duniway was already a well-known writer and journalist in Portland, and prominent orator Susan B. Anthony was touring the nation speaking out for women's suffrage. When Anthony accepted Duniway's invitation to speak in the Northwest, a tale of two remarkable women was sparked. This is the story of that decades-long friendship and their battle for the right to vote, and an inspirational, little-known chapter of Northwest history. This event is free and open to the public.

	Green Burial Guidebook Talk & Signing Saturday May 26 \| 2:00PM - 4:00PM Mark your calendar to hear author Elizabeth Fournier speaking on Green Burial: Everything You Need to Plan an Affordable, Environmentally Friendly Burial Funeral expenses in the U. S. average more than $10,000. And every year conventional funerals bury millions of tons of wood, concrete, and metals, as well as millions of gallons of carcinogenic embalming fluid. There is a better way, and Elizabeth Fournier, affectionately dubbed the “Green Reaper,” walks you through it step-by-step. She provides comprehensive and compassionate guidance, covering everything from green burial planning and home funeral basics to legal guidelines and outside-the-box options, such as burials at sea. Fournier points the way to green burial practices that consider both the environmental well-being of the planet and the economic well-being of loved ones. This event is co-sponsored by the Clark County Green Neighbors Program & Vintage Books
	History Through Generations Wednesday April 18 \| 10:30AM - 11:30AM Camas and East Vancouver Authors C Jane Reid and Dan Strawn come together to discuss and read from their historical novel series'. C. Jane Reid's series currently consists of 2 novels ("The Secret Stitch and The Sojourners) that will grow to three in succeeding months. Her series follows a family through eleven generations. Dan Strawn's is a collection of three novels (Lame Bird's Legacy, Isaac's Gun- An American Tale, and Black Wolf's Return) that share characters through three hundred years of the Nez Perce Indian contacts with the European migration into the Northwest. Both authors will have signed copies of all their books available for sale.

Vintage Books invites you to join us for The Sunday Sessions May 6th at 3pm at author Margaret Pinard discusses Money & Writing: Supporting Your Dream and Making it Pay.

This is perfect for published and not-yet published authors who would like to make a living writing. Margaret is coming with many different options and ideas and will be able to assist you in recognizing some options that may be perfect for you. Every writer would love to make money from writing, right? This is the place to discover some ways how to make it pay!

MARGARET PINARD has spent her first few decades traveling the globe in search of adventures to incorporate into her writing, including living in the lands of the Celts, the cities of European fashion, and several dolce far niente Mediterranean cultures. She loves research and will use any excuse to learn about Celtic cultures and the 19th century.

She is a keen and omnivorous reader, a traveller who loves to plan, and a lover of song and dance in many forms.

Her novels include The Keening and The Grasping Root, part of the historical drama series, Remnants; Memory's Hostage, a historical mystery; and Dulci's Legacy, a YA mystery/fantasy hybrid. She resides in Portland, OR.

This event is free and open to the public. Be sure to come with a pen and paper to take notes!
