Come celebrate the launch of 50 Over 50 at a Champagnge reception and reading. Books will be for sale and authors avaliable to sign copies. 

 

50 Over 50 is a superb collection of poetry, essays, and fiction by women over 50. This anthology features work by notable authors like Robin Black, Bonnie Jo Campbell, J.C. Todd, Vickie A. Carr, and Rachel Pastan. While many of the writers included are emerging authors (Tori Bond being one of them), all of the work has something funny, thoughtful, and compelling to say about sex, family, loss, and love.

Naked Came the Cheesesteak: A Serial Novel
Co-edited by Tori Bond and Mitchell Sommers

 

The cheesesteak, Philadelphia’s culinary gift to the world, is now a murder weapon. From one end of the city to the other, someone is using cheesesteaks to kill. The police are powerless to stop it. Food trucks have become an instrument of death.  

 

Thirteen Philadelphia area writers have collaborated to produce a murder mystery set in the city of brotherly love. Sometimes funny, sometimes poignant, and sometimes a bit scary, Naked Came the Cheesesteak is both a wild ride of a mystery, and a snapshot of today’s Philadelphia. Co-edited by Tori Bond and Mitchell Sommers.


All thirteen chapters have been posted at PhiladelphiaStories.org. The ebook is due out in Spring 2016.
