Greetings on this mid-week Independence Day!

Author events are nothing unusual at Rediscovered Books in downtown Boise, but so many authors present for a single one - a dozen to use the most limiting count - was something a little different.
The event went well. Visitors to the shop were handed a "passport" and encouraged to visit each of the authors and get their signature; a discount on book purchase prices were the store's reward.
The roster of Ridenbaugh Press authors at the event was large - half of the dozen. They included (on the front row here) Randy Stapilus and Mike Blackbird, and (on the back row) Stephen Hartgen, Hal Bunderson, Rod Gramer and Martin Peterson. Former Supreme Court justice Jim Jones, whose column appears on ridenbaugh.com, was there, as was congressional candidate David Leroy.
The store pronounced itself pleased with the event, and there's potential for another something like it down the road. We'll keep you posted. - rs
Take a breather, enjoy and celebrate.
My books and I will be traveling around southern Idaho this week. Today, two events you might consider dropping by if you're in the area:
At Pocatello, I'll have a book giveaway and signing at 12:30 pm at Coho the Smart Bar, located new Idaho at 4th and Terry.
At Idaho Falls, I'll be doing something similar at 5 pm at the Villa Coffeehouse, downtown at 344 Park Ave., just off Broadway, between Capitol and Shoup.
Tomorrow, I'll be on KLIX-AM in Twin Falls - doing the program in studio this time - and then at noon I'll be doing giveaway/signing at the new Twin Falls Visitor Center, on the canyon rim.
