Supporting Local Authors and Artists

As an author and artist, I know the importance of going out and supporting the local talent wherever you live. Well this past weekend I actually did that. (Yes, I actually went outside my home cave and socialized a tad bit, though I paid for it the next day being virtually useless with fatigue. Still worth it!) I'm excited to read, color and enjoy my way through all the goods that I got from New Mexico artists and authors. See I really do practice what I preach. And I issue a challenge to all of my readers this coming weekend, go out into your community and buy just one item local. Buy something from a local author, a local artist, a local jeweler, whatever. Just go out out and support the creativity in your community! Now go forth and shop!
