2026 CIBA Five-Round Finalist - International "Mind & Spirit" Book Award for Spirituality and Enlightenment A multiple Grand-Prize Gold Medal Award Winner, taking top spot in both the 2024 National Indie Excellence Awards for Visionary Fiction and the 2025 American Fiction Awards in the category of Inspirational Fiction, "Auto Antenna" is a pulp fiction memoir about art, personhood, and an Insider's Guide to Santa Fe. This hip metaphysical novella takes readers on a liberating journey with an unusually alluring and free-spirited adventurer on the verge of her sixth decade. She's a mysterious transplant to Santa Fe who, it turns out, may not be from this world at all. From behind the wheel of a turquoise 1959 Ford Galaxie, she explores the unique mixture of art, magic, and spirituality as a lifestyle that has allowed a small town in the desert to become the third largest art market in the country. The atmospheric highs of the "City Different" deliver fertile terrain for anyone interested in artistic revelry, spiritual seeking, and the process of becoming a person. Cybilline is a therapist for local artists, providing keen psychological insight and hilarity into issues of self-construction and perceived success. She expertly identifies the uses of imagination-not just for the purpose of artmaking, but how those same elements play a role in determining personal identity, and even destiny. With poetic observations and charming fantasia, Auto Antenna is a Readers' Favorite(TM) 2025 International Book Award Winner that offers a toolkit for creating a life of sustaining pleasures, purpose, and invention-all while remaining a timeless love letter to Santa Fe. "A Book about Art that is itself a Work of Art. A Richter scale experience. " - Melissa Polly, "Madroid" HIGHLIGHTED EXTRACTS "It's about the way we stitch ourselves together with a little of this energy, a little of that experience, or this subtle influence, or that various half-belief. And always in our personalities, with visible loose threads dangling about, as we are always unfinished and in motion. " "Is the painting itself the staggering accomplishment or all the moments spent painting it. Isn't it, in the end, about creating a beautiful life. " "I decided not fitting in was probably my thing, not a problem but an answer. "
