Book Club - This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
2019-10-27 19:00 - 20:00
Come talk books with us! This month’s read – as selected by the group during our last meet-up – is Book Club: This is How You Lose The Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. As always, we’ll provide a variety of snacks to munch on during the meet-up. We’ll close out the meeting by voting on next month’s book, so have your suggestions ready!
If you’re unable to purchase and/or borrow the book, we’ll have a copy available to read in the Arts and Craft Library.
This is a free event. To join, just read the book and show up at 7pm on Sunday, 10/27. That’s all there is to it!
Synopsis:
Two time-traveling agents from warring futures, working their way through the past, begin to exchange letters—and fall in love in this thrilling and romantic book from award-winning authors Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone.
In the ashes of a dying world, Red finds a letter marked “Burn before reading. Signed, Blue.”
So begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents in a war that stretches through the vast reaches of time and space.
Red belongs to the Agency, a post-singularity technotopia. Blue belongs to Garden, a single vast consciousness embedded in all organic matter. Their pasts are bloody and their futures mutually exclusive. They have nothing in common—save that they’re the best, and they’re alone.
Now what began as a battlefield boast grows into a dangerous game, one both Red and Blue are determined to win. Because winning’s what you do in war. Isn’t it?
A tour de force collaboration from two powerhouse writers that spans the whole of time and space.

Growing up in small Texas towns, their ghosts and memories appear often in his songs – distant trains in the night, unread letters lying in weathered mailboxes, and memories of the things we love-and-leave blowing across the vast Texas plains. Lyrical imagery and textures that whisper their way effortlessly into the heart, Jeff’s songs are haunting treatises on longing and remembrance. A graduate of Duke University, (winner of the prestigious Academy of American Poets Award) Jeff earned his Masters from the Warren Wilson College MFA Program for Writers in North Carolina. He was a successful board certified Texas lawyer and award winning poet when he closed down his law office in 2003 for life as an itinerant singer songwriter.

Annual Dia de Los Muertos Community Altar and Celebration in Downtown Lockhart
2019-11-01 17:00 - 22:00 | Downtown Lockhart, Texas, Lockhart, TX, 78644, United States
Local Non-Profit Feria de Culturas will be sponsoring their Annual Dia de Los Muertos Community Altar as part of First Friday festivities on November 1, 2019. The celebration honors the lives of deceased loved ones by placing an altar adorned with pictures of the dearly departed, their favorite foods, sugar skulls, along with candles and marigold flowers. The festival is not to be confused with Halloween. Dia de Los Muertos is not a day for ghosts and goblins, rather a day to remember and celebrate the lives of loved ones who have passed on.
This year, Feria de Culturas is encouraging downtown businesses to participate in the event by displaying an altar of their own in their business. They can display a traditional altar honoring a deceased loved one, or one displaying items sold in their business. If the business is a restaurant or bar, they are being encouraged to feature a Dia de Los Muertos inspired dish or drink.
The entire community is encouraged to place a picture of a deceased loved one on the community altar which will be on display on the south end of the Caldwell County Courthouse on Market Street. Set up will begin on Friday November 1st at 3pm.
Free pan de muerto and Mexican hot chocolate will be provided while supplies last. Pan de muerto is traditional sweet bread served on el Dia de Los Muertos. Also, there will be face painting, free crafts, and a live performance by San Antonio based group THE CHIZME. THE CHIZME, featuring Lockhart native Nicole Valdez, gets the crowd moving with their style of cumbia, rock en español, and classic rock. You don’t want to miss out on this performance that will take place on the east end of the court house off of Main Street. The organization also hopes to add more entertainment to the evening’s lineup. The community is encouraged to bring their lawn chairs and dancing shoes. This FREE FAMILY FRIENDLY event will be held from 5pm-10pm.
