Audio Book Giveaway of The Right Kind of Fool
I love listening to audio books when I'm traveling. I've even had those moments when I started driving slower or opted to take the "long" way home so I could keep listening to a compelling story. Which makes it such fun to have my own stories available as audio books....

In this wacky year of limited in-person ANYTHING, I’m partnering with the Black Mountain Library and Sassafras on Sutton bookstore to launch The Right Kind of Fool virtually. I’ll also be joined by special guest Lisa Wingate (bestselling author of Before We Were...

Seems like I just can't keep track of time this year. The seasons, the holidays, the day of the week--it's all a weird 2020-induced blur. I can't tell you how many times I've had to think hard to remember what month it is! But I do know this coming Saturday is...
