She Ate My Bait by Ralph J. Tislaretz (1999) |
States of Mind by Brad Herzog (2001) |
Cheery collection of short stories from a circle of area writers that includes Byron Merritt, Walter Gourlay, Pat Hanson and Chris Kemp; styles range from science fiction to ghost story, romance and detective story. |
Second outing for many of the writers of FWOMP, again crossing many genres from psychological thriller to comedies and serious works with philosophical overtones. |
Tislaretz's Steinbeckian characters roam the shadowy edges of Monterey and its harborfront, evoking his own experiences in laboratories and lettuce fields, commercial fishing boats and plant nurseries. |
Herzog and his wife, Amy, spent several months cruising America in search of the reality behind the tiny towns named for big ideals: Faith, Love, Justice and more. At the end of the journey, they settled in Pacific Grove, "America�s Last Hometown." |
