Happy February! I have one slot open this month and one in April. Reach out if you're interested or have any questions. I've been doing this for almost 20 years and love working with writers. (Yes, I had to double-check that number.) shorturl.at/nCxWV

My last event of the year will be the wonderful @SoFestofBooks later this month in Nashville, Tennessee (about sixty miles away from my hometown the way the crow flies). I am stoked. sofestofbooks.org/
"The flip side of saying no is saying yes more fully, less grudgingly — because I’m not living life like a pat of butter spread too thinly across toast."
