Kristen Caven author of Perfectly Revolting, introduced a new song at the Joaquin Miller Celebration on April 25th in Joaquin Miller Park. She wrote the spunky little ditty to honor the colorful American poet after whom the park is named. Miller, also known as “The Poet of the Sierras” entertained many of California’s famous authors at this homestead in the Oakland Hills. The beautiful Writers Memorial Grove is dedicated to California’s great authors, including Joaquin Miller as well as Bret Harte, Jack London, Mark Twain, Dashiell Hammet and Ina Coolbrith.
