The amazons were out in force when Santa Barbara stock broker Monica Timpe threw a bustling bash at her Anacapa Street home for English author friend Deborah Richards, who debuted her first book, Shift & Shine, which took her ten years to complete.

The memoir, a mixture of pathos and humor, chronicles dealing with trials and tribulations, and other crippling adversities, emerging stronger and kinder.

American Idol contestant Jackson Gillies entertained on his guitar, while food was catered from a taco truck.

Deborah, who met Monica in Malibu four years ago, read excerpts from her new work.

At the fireside table are Jan Wesemann, Manda Feuerman, Brendon Twigden, Pati Clark, Kenny Furman, Chris Goldbiett, and Theresa and Richard Sibthorpe (photo by Priscilla)
