I'll be at historic Webster Groves High School on March 2, 2017, to speak with students during the school's All Write Festival. I'll be joining other St. Louis-area novelists, poets, screenwriters, memoirists, journalists, critics, and songwriters for readings, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions with students during the week-long festival.

I'm happy to be making a contribution to our future creative luminaries!

Post-script: During my presentation at the festival, one of the students. Duyen Anh (Cianna) Vo, who had read The Lies That Bind, presented me with a portrait she painted of the young Devereau French character! What a surprise. I am deeply honored!
