Waving "hi" as I keep moving....it's busy Friday!
Below, an event reminder; where to find calendars, briefs, me (on social media), books, and feature stories for the week.

A reminder of an upcoming event:
Calkins Day Book Signing
Monday through Saturday I assembled my non-bylined works - brief posts and calendar listings - into one convenient file and posting them on Facebook in the evening, so readers can easily choose the ones they want to read.
One can also find those event listings, the Gotta Do It calendar, as well as the pets, health, faith, and arts and entertainment calendars, under the sections tab on the left hand side of http://www.theherald-news.com/. Click on "features" and the topics drop down. Gotta Do It runs under "people."
Thank you for reading The Herald-News. And for reading this blog. And if you've read (or plan to read) any of my books. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Kickboxing saved Joliet man's life
Daniel Morales’ answer to a prayer came when he saw a photograph of a mixed martial artist “about to fly in midair.”
An Extraordinary Life: Serving with a smile
“It was always for the kids and her husband,” Kathy Macris of Joliet, Frances’ daughter-in-law said. “She put them first. ... She had a very positive attitude.”

Have fun with Breast Intentions
Feb. 9 Mardi Gras event benefits breast cancer patients
Lou Ann Peck, founder of the Illinois chapter, said all the
money raised helps breast cancer patients with rent, utility bills, medical and
cosmetic needs, groceries, car payments, gas cards and insurance.
"It's the everyday items that pile up," Peck said.
"It's about the groceries and the kitty litter and the dog food. Maybe
it's the little things that need to be addressed every day that are not because
they have to drop something to pay for something else.
Mystery Diner: Joliet's Hey Hot Dog: Homemade root beer,
great dogs, 'old-timey' venue
I feel the best way to judge a hot dog venue is to sample an
assortment, which is just what a friend and I did one day.
Fallen from grace, saved by grace
Plainfield man has lived both sides
“I started picking up the word of God and reading it. It
formed me from the inside out,” Joe Brunker said. “I started writing worship
songs. I felt this amazing power in me I never felt before.”
Make memories this Valentine's Day
Joliet event planner tells how
Tameca Marve believes occasions such as Valentine's Day,
birthdays, anniversaries – and yes, even Sweetest Day – are opportunities for
people to create cherished memories.
Artworks: Plainfield teen swaps stage for STEM
"Every day we did a new job," Tewes said. "We
got to use the camera and do the sound with the boom mic. We edited a little
bit; they taught us how to do it. Everything you do when making a movie, we got
to try."
