I’m not sure what the rest of the country has heard, but to give an update on the Kincade Fire here in Sonoma County California, 54,298 acres have burned and it is 5% contained. It was 10% contained, but the HISTORIC WINDS messed that up. I have spent the last two days working at a kitchen helping feed families and First Responders. The times I drove around the county were eerie. People were driving slow, cars filled with as many of their possessions as they could fit. It looks like we have been taken over by RV’s. They are parked everywhere, but ready to mobilize any minute. The shelters are full, but some of those even had to be evacuated. Many gas stations and grocery stores are closed. It’s overwhelming. The silver lining… I can say with the up most confidence, thousands of Sonoma County residences have donated their time and resources. After the 2017 fires, we know how to do this. Sonoma Family Meal, the non profit I work for, has been buying produce and meat from the local ranchers and farmers that they were not able to sell to the markets. So many restaurants have donated food to Sonoma Family Meal as well. People are eating very well. I will say though, it’s overwhelming. I’m tired.
If you would like to donate to Sonoma Family Meal click here. We are working hard to support our local farmers and ranchers as well as evacuees and first responders. Currently is says we raised $22,701… that was for the 2017 fires, NOT this fire. We have just started fundraising for this fire and need help. You can also see pictures from the last two days on our Facebook page by clicking here. Thank you guys.

Conviction: Written By Blood: Book One
by Dwayne Gill
Genre: Thrillers
FREE for a limited time
Not all monsters are created equal.
Cane was trained from birth by the U.S. government to be the world’s deadliest assassin. However, Red Delta, the secretive program that made him, was exposed for targeting American citizens and shut down. Now the FBI is hunting Cane and has forced him into hiding, where he does odd jobs that suit his set of skills and keep his instincts sharp.
Despite his life in the shadows, someone still manages to track him down and leaves him a cryptic message on an outdated cassette player — one that upends his entire life all over again.
The voice wants his help investigating the phenomenon of ordinary men who’ve been disappearing by the thousands, leaving their families and careers behind, only to turn up elsewhere in the country bearing a strange marking. There are plenty of whispered conspiracy theories, but the mysterious messenger offers one that she can prove is true: A group of terrorists are recruiting these men, genetically altering them, and turning them into terrorists in a twisted quest for global domination.
The informant leads Cane to recruit the help of Daniel, a colossal man with a violent past who’s had his own colorful run-ins with the marked men. There’s one big problem: he’s currently serving time for murder.
Cane and Daniel may be the only ones capable of stopping the terrorists, but they’re badly outnumbered and must fight to stay ahead of the FBI Agents who have been hunting Cane since the assassin program was terminated.
Strap in for a thrill-ride that’ll have you questioning where that fine line between bad and evil is, while leaving you hoping the biggest monster is on your side.
