My View of Life on the Dock
We would like to send a great thank you to Clean Gloucester for coming to help clean up Clark Cemetery. It was a very cold 28 degrees when we started at 8 am. These awesome people came out anyway. In a flurry of activity trash was picked up, brush was hauled away, a fire pit was dismantled and new community connections were made. This could not have been a better or more fun end to our season. Thank you again and we look forward to working with everyone again after the winter!
Hi Joey

Joey,
As you probably know I’m an author with several titles available. You’ve been kind enough in the past to make announcements when I have a new release. I will now provide you with the dialogue for the new release.
Gloucester native and author Barry Stacks has a new book for your reading pleasure. The Black Flag is the third book in the Tucker Norman series. Once again, the setting for the story is Gloucester, Mass., which is the author’s hometown. The title of the book is taken from a tradition of flying a black flag on a commercial fishing boat when someone has died at sea. In this mystery novel, several fishing boats return to Gloucester flying a black flag. Once again Tucker Norman and Associates are asked by local law enforcement to investigate this unusual situation. The investigation delivers the reader through a maze of complicated evidence and into a quagmire filled with strange characters, who appear to have a secondary motive for their activities. The reader, as is always the case, is dragged around Cape Ann as our sleuth tries to fit the pieces of the puzzle together. Also, the reader will find themselves dumped in that pot of boiling water known around the world as Haiti. This is another thrilling adventure/mystery written especially for the citizens of Cape Ann to enjoy. In 2015 there will be three more Tucker Norman novels. Look for Rosie Crud, Johnny Hansom and Floyd in the early Spring of 2015. Following that release look for Partly Aged Rosemary…And Time around mid-summer 2015. Finally, around this time next year look for the release of The Boogeyman. All Barry’s books are available on-line and at your local book store. Also, if you have trouble finding any of Barry’s books he extends to you an open invitation to contact him via lostboy1007@tampabay.rr.com.
Barry wants to thank all his supporters for their years of dedication.

A Peek behind "Warehouse Doors"
Saturday November 22, 7:30PM
Trident Gallery, 189 Main St. Gloucester MA, 978-491-7785
“Dance in Dialogue” features two original performance works, followed by conversation and refreshments. Free, donations encouraged. Space is limited so please reserve a seat at events@tridentgallery.com.
Kate Tarlow Morgan (dancer/writer) recently returned from a midwest pilgrimage to bury her father’s ashes with a dramatic story of relatives unknown to her. She will report this intense personal story with the aid of artifacts, photographs, and a movement score created especially for the walls of Trident Gallery.
Loren Doucette (visual artist) and Sarah Slifer Swift (dancer) will show a segment of their collaborative project “Unravelling.” The piece explores the building of a framework within which a relationship is contextualized. Through dance and visual art created in the live moment, they inhabit the possibilities of unravelling the self from the frame.
