🐚 I bought the tagged book at Land‘s End (SF)overlooking the ocean and one of the first pages I flipped to is a sketch of the ocean, the horizon, and the Land‘s End Rocks with the text, “That‘s it, breathe. Just take it slow,” which is something the ocean always seems to be saying to me.

Look at me being quite the #fangirl! I just got to meet Paul Madonna at Open Studios at Three Fish Studios in San Francisco and he was just lovely. Had a great chat, posed for this pic, and got two books signed!! If you are in the area and like art, books, and art books, go check it out. #littenswhofangirl

Eyelit Very cool! 8y
tpixie Fun!!! Thx!!! I'm heading to San Francisco for a conference November 9 but plan to do a lot of touristing!!! 8y
KVanRead @tpixie The Open Studios are only on this weekend, but it's a great little gallery near the Ocean Beach and Golden Gate Park. Have a great time in SF! 8y

tpixie Ok!! Thx for info!! 8y
tpixie Favorite indie bookstore or restaurant??? 8y
KVanRead @tpixie oooh, that is tough...City Lights Bookstore is a must. Be sure to check out all 3 floors and Café Tosca across the street is a landmark (Bogie and Bacall used to drink there) and recently reopened as a restaurant. That's also not far from Café Trieste where Coppola apparently penned Apocalypse Now. Other bookstore picks: Book Passage in the Ferry Building, Alley Cat Books in the Mission. Other restos: there are so many butCafé Claude, 8y
KVanRead Foreign Cinema and Bluestem Brasserie are some of my faves 8y
tpixie Thx!!!! That gives me a nice selection!! Hopefully I can make at least one or two!!! 8y

#augustphotochallenge My #underhypedbook pick is not just Everything Is its Own Reward but everything by Paul Madonna. The combination of his exquisite drawings and original observations create magic for me every time. I really loved his new novel, currently only available on IBooks or as a limited edition http://www.closeenoughfortheangels.com/ @TheSpinecrackersBookClub
