Proselytizing Protagonists Panel
Very happy to announce that I’ll be moderating a panel discussion at this year’s Brooklyn Book Festival!
10:00 A.M. In _____ We Trust. What do you believe in? A twelve-year-old preacher, a cult that will end loneliness, a community promising hope? When strong personalities and religion collide, what or whom we trust in becomes a complicated topic. Take a seat while Scott Cheshire (High as the Horses’ Bridles), Fiona Maazel (Woke Up Lonely), and Rachel Urquhart (The Visionist) talk about their proselytizing protagonists. Moderated by Brook Wilensky-Lanford.
Sunday, September 21st at 10 a.m. at the Brooklyn Law School Student Lounge (250 Joralemon Street). Followed immediately by a book signing!
