Your Garfield County Libraries are offering two more chances to meet local author Donna Lee Humble. Her new book “Seek, Not for Love” was written specifically for those who have so much passion and so much to share, but have been unable to move forward due to unresolved traumas, physical ailments, lack of energy, or a sense of being stifled by unfounded self-doubt. The book extends real solutions to overcoming the obstacles that block one’s purpose, peace, and potential. Events have been held over the past two months downvalley, and the last two will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 9 at the Glenwood Springs Branch Library and Saturday, Oct. 23 at the Carbondale Branch Library. Both are free and open to the public. For more information visit www.gcpld.org.
