AUTHOR VISITS:
Alex shares, “I love speaking to readers. I especially love speaking to book clubs and reading groups. They’re engaged, involved and – like me! – love books. All writers are avid readers first, and I’m no exception. I love talking about the novels, comics and books I’m enjoying and sharing that experience with others. Books are part of my life. Not just creating them, but experiencing them. Books got me through good times and bad, and I fully understand their importance to people.”
Alex is available for book club visits and video chats via NovelNetwork. View his calendar of availability here.
