New Novella Free on Kindle this Weekend
Very happy to announce my new novella, Virga in Death Valley is live and ready for love today on Kindle!
To celebrate, the ebook will be free beginning at midnight 6/19/21 through early next week.
I've loved this character for decades, since he showed up and stole the show a bit in my first novel. Been "saving" Dennis's story for a screenplay - but w/a massive novel to finish this year, that could mean waiting too long. It's time for this unique origin story to leave the nest.
Virga in Death Valley
VIRGA in Death Valley is an intimate character sketch focused on the early life of Dennis Corbel, artist and photographer. Events take place in the 1970s across locales he and his father roll through on a Harley. Dennis appears again twenty years later in the novel, TORPOR.

"It’s the job of the soul to stretch out across the body of the desert and touch, without skin or fingers or nerves, the hidden creek that wets our knowledge of who we are. Who we are before and after. Who we are when we’re alone and a goddess looks into our eyes, looks into our dreams and says, yes. I see you clearly."

Obvious Grist and Hidden Stars: Take a Walk with the Author
As a novelist, I apply imagination to truth
and truth to imagination. This is how
I process the world, whether or not I’m in
the act of writing.
Come on a walk with me in this visual diary
"A single grain of longing for something better
is in itself a dreamy change upon the land..." Read and view the photos in SNAPSHOTS on Medium: Obvious Grist and Hidden Stars by Laurie Perez
