B&G Sponsored Events is very excited to announce that we are going to have a very special guest vendor at our May 18, July 20, August 17, Oct 12, Nov 16 and Dec 14, 2019 Bazaars.
If the words Star Trek, Bones, and "He's dead, Jim" ring a bell for you and make you want more information now, you are among those of us who grew up during the original Star Trek series. Many of us are still watching reruns for at least the 100th time. We are a group known as "Trekkies" and "Trekkers."

Bill and Gail had the privilege of meeting Kristine M Smith this past weekend. She has agreed to come to all of our events for the rest of this year, except for June when she has a speaking engagement at Raincon in Forks, WA.

PLEASE BE AWARE: Kris will have JUST 25 copies of her most sought after book. "DeForest Kelley, Up Close and Personal: A Harvest of Memories From The Fan "Who Knew Him Best", at the May 18th Mother's Day Bazaar. If you want to be sure to have a copy of it (or any other of her titles) for Kris to sign to you or a loved one, please order it online in advance and bring it with you to the bazaar!

BIO OF Kris M. Smith, Author

A Pacific Northwest native, Kris M. Smith’s writing career was launched by actor DeForest Kelley fifty years ago. It was Kelley and his wife Carolyn who encouraged Kris to try Hollywood on for size, which she did from 1989 to 2003.

Kris served as Mr. Kelley’s personal assistant and caregiver during the final months of his life and presented heartfelt sentiments about her mentor at Paramount Studios' memorial service for him in 1999. 

She has written two books about him: DeForest Kelley Up Close and Personal, A Harvest of Memories from the Fan Who Knew Him Best (2016) and The Enduring Legacy of DeForest Kelley: Actor, Healer, Friend. 

She has just published an updated version of Enduring Legacy and will have a series of six books containing more than a thousand phone conversations she shared with the Kelley's. The title of that series will be "Kelley Phone Tag: The Rest of the Story.

" She will have a few copies of one or two volumes of it and ENDURING LEGACY available at her table.

In Hollywood, Kris served as an administrative assistant and secretarial floater to writers, producers and—later—information technology professionals at various studios. Most of her Hollywood career was spent at Warner Bros. Studios.

The author of eleven books, Kris’s sixth title, Serval Son: Spots and Stripes Forever—a cautionary true story about what it’s like to own, and be owned by, a wild cat for seventeen years—reached the #2 and #4 spots at Amazon in two niche categories when it debuted in September 2011.

Kris’s 2012 title, Settle for Best: Satisfy the Winner You Were Born to Be contains encouragement and instructions to entrepreneurs and anyone else who wants to leave a business, personal, or family legacy that will resonate for generations to come. Settle for Best stood at #1 in the Motivational Self-Help category at Amazon for three days when it debuted.

Kris loves dancing with words and interacting with people.
