Paperback. Condition: Good. The city of Seattle and Capitol Hill neighborhood described in this book (2007-1994) no longer exist. When Jack Waste arrived in 1994, Seattle was a dream. Capitol Hill was a dream. Now they are ghosts of dreams and you who read this are dreamers of ghosts.The city of Seattle and Capitol Hill neighborhood described in this book (2007-1994) no longer exist. When did the old Seattle die? There were many previous incarnations of the city, of course, but one could make a case for etching the year 2014 into the gravestone. In 2014, the Seahawks won their first Super Bowl and reached the previously unattainable peak. Seattle was no longer an underdog city. Tears of grief for its lost status didn't flow until the shock ending of the following year's Super Bowl. Blinded by championship hubris, the coaches elected to pass from the one-yard line with a minute left instead of giving the ball to Marshawn Lynch for the win. The pass was intercepted, the Seahawks lost, and Seattle fell hard from the top of the mountain. The next morning, the city woke up a bitter loser, no longer comforted by the reassuring blanket of its previous underdog status.Old Capitol Hill died in 2014 too. Half Price Books closed in June.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. *Veteran-Owned, Family-Run, Small Business in the Pacific Northwest*.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Jacqueline Miller Bachar trusted the creative process she had embraced since her years working as an art therapist in the 1970's that laid the groundwork for a life of creative endeavors. She recognized that experimentation is an essential part of the process when she wrote to her short story course instructor G. Miki Hayden in 2000, this is the time for me to try it and learn in the trying. The author tried to write her first story in 1995- La F te de la Vie (The Celebration of Life). She was sixty years old. The story won 1st place in the Palm Springs Writers Guild Short Story Contest and was published in the September 2000 issue of Palm Springs Life. I have to go through the process with a germ of an idea, then rewrite, rewrite, struggle, pain and agony, and then, voila, she wrote in 2001. There was a lot of voila between 1998 and 2001 when eight of the fourteen stories in this collection were written. Perhaps helping her husband battle cancer to remission at the time led to an unleashing of creative energy. I have written four books during stressful times of illness, she wrote, my mother's cancer, me with rheumatoid arthritis, Paul's cancer, and my cancer. Isolated and separated from society and normal activity, the mind turns inward. The concentration of the inner self seems to release a productive period of creativity. It is an escape from the real world with all its inherent problems. Is it in the knowledge of death that life is truly celebrated? the author asks. I believe it is so. The stories and poems in this collection explore themes of grief and loss, the celebration and continuum of life, fulfillment of pledges made between friends, rediscovery of the self after trauma, and the value of family. Jacqueline Bachar, author and editor of Poetry in the Garden, Life on the Ohio Frontier, Images of a Woman, and An Exploration of Boundaries, was named a 2010 Woman of Distinction by the National League of PEN Women and awarded a Certificate of Congressional Recognition.…
