stranger things happen by Kelly Link

Kelly Link travels extensively -- usually by car -- and is willing to make detours to visit bookshops (she's been to quite a few already . . .). She is available for readings, signings, and events. A book club just asked her to drop by while they discussed Stranger Things Happen, which seems like a nice idea. If you'd like Kelly to visit, maybe she can call you during the discussion, or we can try and time it to go with her tour.She is an accomplished reader and interesting speaker who has read and participated at many conventions and conferences.

Listen to Kelly read the first five minutes of "The Specialist's Hat" on the Quimby's website -- check under the Live at Quimby's recordings.
