Do you ever feel as though your dreams have stalled somewhere out among the stars, leaving you stranded here on Earth waiting for them to show up? Have you wondered why your heart beats faster just thinking about what you’re going to be doing, and then wondered when you’ll get to actually live your dream?

Dream Repair Shop, my new book, is for you, a collection of poems, essays and tidbits that grew out of my own dreams and their repairs. Out of what I saw easing other people into their dreams.

Two and half years after publication of The Turnip Mercedes and Other Tasty Tales, I’m doing the final layout of Dream Repair Shop, Balm for Hearts, Souls and Funny-bones. Stay tuned for the publication date, either late April or early May.

I’ve long dreamed of publishing one item per month for a year, whether book, poem, song, or greeting card. Will this be the year? I’m not sure, but I know this is the first of a new string of publications. The dam has broken. The dream lives!

I’m happy to be back, to have good news to share with you. Get your dreams out, dust them off, and check to be sure they’re ready to go. Then fly!

You’ll recognize me among the clouds, the one with the biggest smile and a new book clutched to her heart!

Cheers!
Chas
