Last Monday's Zoom podcast with Beaverdale Books folks

...and your link to the amazing conversation with Caleb Rainey, this coming Monday

Tucked away in a small shopping center is an independent book store that is a magnet for metro-area readers and writers. On any given evening, the doors will be open after hours for authors to give readings from their books, and guests gather happily to listen.

It’s a cherished experience by the grateful followers of Beaverdale Books store. And, it’s a welcome and necessary service for Iowa authors.

It is also a gem we should not take for granted.

In this podcast upload, come meet the store’s co-owner, Hunter Gillum, events coordinator Jan Kaiser, and authors Mike Triggs, Jann Freed, and Patti Issacs. More about these authors. And we’ve come to expect, our audience is interesting, too.
