Doe Bay and SPLAB are proud to host Barbara Ludwig at this week’s literary salon series at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 14.

Former San Juan Island resident, Barbara Ludwig, AKA Blue Bus Barb, has been a traveler without an agenda since the early 1980s.  A storyteller in the oral tradition, she was encouraged by friends to set pen to paper several years ago. As a result, she now finds her work included amongst the work of 41 other authors in a travel cookbook anthology released by Random House. 

Female Nomad and Friends includes stories and recipes that show our common connections and humanity.  All royalties are being donated to a vocational training program in New Delhi, India to benefit children of the slums. The funds are being distributed through Rotary International. Barbara is promoting the book on a world wide tour starting in Alaska and finishing in India.  Proceeds from the sales on her tour will benefit local charities.

Reservations are recommended.  Call the Cafe at 360-376-8059 or see www.doebay.com
