SUMMARY:An Evening with Frank Haug
DESCRIPTION:Join the Narrow Gauge Book Cooperative in welcome Frank Haug for a reading\, Q&A\, and signing of his book\, In a Morada. \nAbout the Book: Set against the rugged beauty of the early 1980s Southwest\, In a Morada follows Doc Schaefer as he steps into a whirlwind of corruption\, racism\, family tensions\, and simmering violence. Over the course of twenty-four gripping hours\, Schaefer must face down violent criminals\, navigate Crowther’s volatile temper\, and confront his own doubts—all while trying to restore order. More than just a Western\, In a Morada is a compelling tale that explores the intersections of faith\, heritage\, and the true meaning of victory. Richly layered and deeply engaging\, this story delves into history\, culture\, and philosophy. Beneath the fast-paced chases\, gunfights\, and hand to hand combat lies a profound exploration of humanity’s journey—how we have evolved or\, at times\, failed to do so—and what this means for us in our daily lives. \nAbout the Author: Frank Haug draws inspiration from his roots along the Rio Grande in Colorado’s San Luis Valley. As a dedicated attorney\, community college professor\, farmer\, and author\, he embodies the spirit of a fourth-generation Coloradan. His great-grandfather\, also named Frank Haug\, owned saloons in bustling mining towns throughout 1800s Colorado\, including in Creede\, Leadville\, and Denver. Frank’s writing passionately explores the American West. It tackles critical issues faced by small-town America\, with a special focus on resonating with rural men. Yet\, the themes he presents transcend regional boundaries. His stories possess a universal appeal that captivates a diverse readership. With a commitment to crafting accessible and enjoyable fiction\, he thoughtfully engages with philosophical\, historical\, cultural\, political\, and religious themes. As a philosophy major and former prosecutor\, he explores how justice and moral systems succeed and fail in our modern world. The overwhelmingly positive feedback from readers on platforms like Amazon and Goodreads is a testament to the appeal of his work. Now residing in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains\, Frank shares a small farm with his wife and three sons\, where they raise and market sheep and lamb\, tend a flock of chickens\, pasture llamas\, and embrace the beauty of the Rocky Mountains. His work invites readers to experience and reflect on the values and stories that define not just rural America\, but the human experience as a whole.

It’s undeniable watching Jones who usually performs on her gnarly 1960s Sears Roebuck Silvertone guitar with her life and musical partner (Brian Dowd) holding the heartbeat on the drums. They’re “everything that’s good about rock and roll” says GRAMMY-winning icon Lucinda Williams. And like Williams\, their road has been hard fought. \nCatchy yet arrestingly sincere as an artist and songwriter\, it’s no wonder Jones’s following has been steadily growing since the release of her seminal record Stories Up High (2022)\, produced by Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes\, Langhorne Slim) of the famed Bomb Shelter in East Nashville. \nWith a history of opening for bands like The Heartless Bastards\, Kurt Vile\, and Mirador\, Laney Jones and the Spirits continue to cut their teeth on mics literally and metaphorically across the US. Quickly building momentum\, the crew’s live\, raw energy and heart-on-their-sleeves mentality is something that you just gotta witness for yourself.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Victoria Martinez
DESCRIPTION:Join the Narrow Gauge Book Cooperative in welcoming Victoria Martinez for a reading\, Q&A\, and signing of her book A Call to Awaken: A Collection of Poems. \nAbout the Book: A Call to Awaken is a heartfelt collection of poems about life\, struggle\, resilience\, and hope. This book offers poems that are both personal and deeply relatable. Through themes of cultural pride\, emotional healing\, and a desire to spark meaningful dialogue around navigating systems not built for everyone\, A Call to Awaken speaks to anyone who has ever felt unseen or unheard. Whether you’re new to poetry or have loved it for years\, this collection invites you to pause\, reflect\, and awaken your own voice. It’s a reminder that your story matters – and that there is power when we come together to create change. \nVictoria (Tori) Martinez is a Latina poet\, artist\, business owner\, and social changemaker\, native to the San Luis Valley. She is a proud first-generation college graduate\, she writes from a deep well of lived experience and finds healing through creative expression. Her work explores the intersections of belonging\, identity\, chronic illness\, and the power of community\, offering a voice to those who have often been left out of the conversation. \nWhen she’s not writing or painting\, you’ll find her speaking at events\, building bridges through storytelling\, mentoring young leaders and cultivating connection in rural communities. Through her business\, Vida Mestiza\, she shares her art\, poetry\, and advocacy to raise awareness about disability and health equity. With a background in community-based research\, higher education and leadership development\, she’s committed to building inclusive spaces where all voices – especially those most often silenced – can be heard. A Call to Awaken is her debut poetry collection\, which includes some of her artwork. \nPrior to this collection\, she published the following: The Geology\, Ecology and Human History of the San Luis Valley\, University Press of Colorado\, 2020. Increasing Equity Through Place-based Education\, Community Works Magazine\, 2020. Students as Citizen Researchers: Giving Voice to the Community\, Community Works Magazine\, 2019. Three Dimensions of Placed-based Learning at Hispanic Serving Institutions\, Excelencia in Education\, 2016. “Two People”. The Circle Book: A Conejos County Anthology\, Alacrity House Publishing\, 2013.
