When we layer the complexity of political campaigns into the incidents and events, we add an entirely new layer of hot spots to the model. We have another challenge here. Because we are so interconnected, spreading rumors and disinformation about those seeking public office is easy. 

True Beauty is found everywhere, especially in the arts. Our feature story this month is about the dynamic dance studio Dance Conservatory Seattle that serves professional dancers, as well as local residents who’ve never set foot in a ballet studio before. Regarding Truth & Beauty, I have a peculiar interest in the art world that has manifested itself in my latest book, a fictional account of a woman artist who suffers from a fall in grace (details coming soon). I hope you enjoy my summer round-up of books related to the art world.  –Patricia Vaccarino
