NOIR Pause for PUSHCART Nominations ~ AT THE BIJOU

NOIR Pause for (drumroll please)

PUSHCART Nominations
 ~ AT THE BIJOU ~

BIJOU SEAT ~ Heidi Schlempp Fournier
Luscious Ladies and Genteel Gents who have been gracing our red velvet seats AT THE BIJOU for the past two years ~

The lingering mood of the painting above (available, fittingly at artist Uncle Shlomo's Pushcart sitespeaks to me, solitary on its reflective pier, as the author's mind. Alone but full, where words come to life and purvey their chance encounter to reach reader, to turn pages, to hold interest, to inspire, to leave rapt or to evoke a well-placed chortle. 

We have experienced all that AT THE BIJOU with the stunning authors gracing our virtual stage of stories and reflections. Truly 'Writers' raves are Readers' faves'.

Honoured am I
 to send the following
 six Pushcart Nominations
 out into the world
 to do us proud ~

An excellent list, Ms. *Kate - good reading all 'round.

And there was more than one you could be proud of - but I understand the need to choose but one. The one you chose, most excellent.
