Third book in a series of anthologies by Shapato Publishing

This book will be available very soon – early November – at http://www.shapatopublishing.com/ . This is the third book in a series of anthologies written by people who grew up in and around small towns in the Midwest. My essay “Coming Through, Wilma” is in this book. Another of my essays is in the first book of the series, “Walking Beans Wasn’t Something You Did With Your Dog.” My father has a story in the second book: “Knee High by the Fourth of July.” His essay: “The Storm of the Century.”

I can’t say enough about how great it’s been to work with Laura Redmond.
