31 Oct 2024Hi Ian! It’s jeanna previously from Rock Creek PL! I’m now at North Canton Public Library, and we’d like to talk to you about a pair of slide shows! I saw your new book in Ohio Magazine—congratulations!, and, just having gotten settled in my new role and new library, I thought: We need to bring him here! We’d love if we could discuss a double engagement on a Tues or Thursday in the winter (Jan or Feb). We’d love to have you at the library for an evening slide show, and at our Seniors program during the day for another one. (We have a thriving seniors outreach program at the North Canton Civic Center that we run every Tues. and Thurs., and I’m sure they would love your stuff.) Let’s talk! Cell still (330) 858-4115, work line is (330) 499-4712 ext. 313
