MINDEN, Nev.— Author and comedienne Kat Simmons will speak on her book,
Kat’s Daily Cups in a free presentation at the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park on Sunday, August 28, at 10:00 am.
Kat's Daily Cups
is a collection of short stories about raising children, the love of animals, life's challenges, gratitude, inspiration and awakenings.
Kat Simmons says some stories will make the reader laugh and some may make them cry. Simmons hopes her book will become a personal book to the reader, in an interactive journey and will answer the question. "What is in your Daily Cup today?".
