You may only have a hot minute to skee-daddle over the bridge to get your gargoyle on, but how else are you gonna spend an October evening with a sidewalk full of leaves? Join local author Daniel Meyer for a presentation of his book, ‘Gargoyles and Grotesques of the Ohio River Valley’, at the Jeffersonville Township Public Library tonight, October 25th, at 6pm.
I, my dearies, really like haunted houses. The fake ones – ahem, the “thematic” ones – my friends. The stages set for spooktacular thrills for the cost of a hot date. It’s something I ponder all the live-long year until October slinks up and scuttles...

There’s more to the music of the Bluegrass than simply strumming on the front porch. Join author Jason Howard for a reading and signing of his new book, ‘A Few Honest Words: The Kentucky Roots of Popular Music’, this coming Thursday, October 25th, at Carmichael’s Bookstore.

You may think donuts pair best with coffee, but I would challenge you to think even sweeter. Join poets Lynnell Edwards and Sean Patrick Hill for a deliciously free reading at Java Brewing Company tonight at 7:30pm.
It is scarf weather. It has been for a hot minute. This is, perhaps, old news to my savvy readers, but I feel such a moniker of Fall needs to be properly anointed; there is a difference between merely “chilly” and true “scarf weather”. I like the concept of...

Join state historian, James Klotter, as he speaks on the history of central Kentucky, and presents the rich culture of the region with his new book, ‘Bluegrass Renaissance’. Catch him this Thursday, October 18th, at 6pm at The Filson Historical Society.
I’m tired. With perhaps a little more nuance than usual, my friends. This woman’s heart is a landscape of potholes at the moment, and I feel like a lonely body eclipsed by a gray, lunar surface whenever it beats. It’s getting bad, kids. Real, real bad....
