Sliding into the 21st Century

By Chantz Perkins

A street urchin dying in a freezing Chicago street, a bar owner anxious about Prohibition,

while in Amsterdam, the Nazi invasion squeezes another bar owner, and a crooner in 1950

all tap their tales into this unique book called Piano Diaries.

Lavender Martini is a chronicle about a female high school teacher living in a time when she

must keep her own identity hidden for society. All this during a period in history when the

world had gone mad.

Oh Johnny: the last chance road trip

A woman past her mid-life, dares herself to an adventure. To travel across the world to see

a man she never met...One does not always know why an impulse insists with such urgency.

Suddenly caught inside a force too strong to fight with no ability to deny the impulse. Riptide

energy are the words I chose to define my scramble to see Johnny. Being swept up and

whisked along, practically dragged by my bootstraps from the end of a speeding train. Not

exactly terrifying, yet uncontrollable. This is no movie romance trying for a reunion love affair.

I don't swing that way, and apparently, neither does he. So why Johnny, after all this time?
