Dear Folks,
Ninety-five words can say a lot. You'll find out when you read the
winning essays in our 95-word fiction contest in this week's Reno
News & Review...
Also, Brad Bynum covers a two-CD compilation of performances by more
than a dozen local bands. Ashley Hennefer interviews Sierra Arts
Foundation executive director Stacey Spain. Ashley's Fall Family
Guide is also included. Bethany Deines describes election night
gatherings of the political parties. We also report on how close
Nevada is to a mostly non-white population.
That's it-- 95 words.
Take care,
Dennis Myers
