Please join us for a virtual book launch for David Bowie and Romanticism on Saturday, September 17th, from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET via Zoom and Instagram Live Feed. Contributors will be discussing their chapters.

I'll be on location at the Melbourne, FL record store Savvy Vinyl Records. It's a small, independent, woman-owned and operated business. 

Note that FL recently voted for permanent Daylight Savings Time.
