My name is Brynne. (Visit me at brynnebarnes.com.) These are the things (and people) that keep me inspired, that keep me feeling the stuff of life. I make things (poems, stories, songs, jewelry) because my soul wants to make a sound.

I adore you, independent bookstores.  I adore all bookstores, truthfully.  Any place with books on its shelves is home to me.  And just when I didn’t think I could love a bookstore any more…I did a reading/signing at B&N for St. Pius X Catholic School’s Bookfair Fundraiser.  What put it over the top — the children created decorative collages for the entire store — so many that there was no room to put them all up!  But I looked at a great deal of them and they were beautiful.  You can see some of the larger ones they created pictured here.  Who wouldn’t be inspired by children’s art?</p>http://brynnebarnes.tumblr.com/post/16296836926http://brynnebarnes.tumblr.com/post/16296836926Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0500St. Pius Catholic SchoolBarnes and NobleColors of MeBrynne BarnesAuthor eventAuthor signingMichigan authorBookfair Fundraiser
