I am psyched about next week's Ice Age Trail Annual Conference, where I will be giving a talk about my hiking novel, The Freakin' Destination, on Friday. If you're in Wisconsin for the conference, I'd love to have you stop by. Beach casual attire is suggested.😜

These have arrived! - the finished, hardback copies of a little book I've written about the joyfully unpredictable experience of producing Father Ted. Publication is Feb 20th but I'd like to give away two copies early - RT by Saturday 6pm and my dog Watson will pick the winners.
