Willington Public Library Authors Trail

Just in time for the holidays the Connecticut Authors & Publishers Association’s Northeast Chapter in conjunction with the Willington Public Library will host a book signing/sale by local authors.

Speak with an author, find out what motivates them to write, learn what other books they plan to publish, perhaps even gain an insight into how you can also become a published author.

A signed book by a mystery novelist, a nonfiction writer, or a children’s author makes a great holiday gift and a one-of-a-kind, personalized memento.

The public is invited to a collaborative book signing

by published authors from the

Connecticut Authors & Publishers Association (CAPA)

Elk/Moose Crash Test

When I was in Montana this past summer we had a few near misses with mule deer darting onto the road. Even driving below the speed limit and paying attention to your surroundings, animals have a spontaneity to their movements and are unpredictable.

Here is a video simulation of a composite dummy showing what could happen if a car broadsides a moose.

Also, notice in the simulation the airbag does not deploy due to the strike being too high to trigger a deployment since the hood of the car only hits the legs and tends to flip the animal's center mass up onto the hood and through the windshield.

I stumbled onto this YouTube video doing research for my next novel which will have an animal strike scene.

Please slow down on the roads. Even today I had to swerve onto the shoulder because an oncoming car crossed over the center-line. There is too much at risk to be speeding, running red lights, texting, or talking on the phone.
