Literary Orange

Coming in April, I’ll be on a panel at Literary Orange entitled “Memoirs: Hope and Challenge” with authors Samantha Dunn and Norman Ollestad.  Samantha Dunn’s beautiful memoir, Not By Accident,  tells the story of her recovery from a devastating riding accident.  Normal Ollestad’s Crazy For the Storm is a riveting account of a small-plane crash the author experienced with his father when he was only eleven years-old.  Ollestad was the sole survivor of that crash, and his book is so much more than a telling of the event.  Andrew Tonkovich will moderate our panel, which takes place at 3 pm.  The entire days promises to be a terrific event, with appearances by Dean Koontz, Karen Joy Fowler and more.  Visit the Literary Orange website for more information about authors and schedule.
