It was a pleasure to talk with Thad Nodine the other day. His prize-winning book Touch and Go takes us on a road trip like no other—a blind man and foster family who discover the true meaning of family and endure the ravages of Katrina, as well as the storms of their own past histories.

Join us at Kepler’s in Menlo Park, CA October 16 1-3 PM to meet Thad and learn more about his amazing journey to become a writer, and how he drew from his own life to create never to be forgotten characters.

I will be speaking with Thad and Rachael Herron in a panel discussion–there will be food too! Please come to celebrate reading, writing, and creativity.
