will air an interview with me about my latest book, Windmill, on Friday. The interview is scheduled for the Spectrum West program, which covers arts and the humanities in west-central Wisconsin. Among the topics discussed: How a windmill in eastern Wisconsin became the genesis for the novel; why the novel is set in Nebraska (and what town actually is located where the book’s mythical county/village is placed); and how the book almost wasn’t published. We also briefly look at my other books, the Hikes and Tykes volumes and the poetry collection Love Letters to Sophie’s Mom and list the bookstores where you can purchase the books. You can catch Spectrum West from 5 to 6 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7, on 88.3 WHWC/Menomonie-Eau Claire or 88.7 WRFW/River Falls.



Need an editor? Having your book, business document or academic paper proofread or edited before submitting it can prove invaluable. In an economic climate where you face heavy competition, your writing needs a second eye to give you the edge. I can provide that second eye.
