Maybe getting older lets you finally see all sides of the dice - not just the ones that are facing up."

Vera Bartlet is a soon-to-be college graduate with absolutely no idea how messy her life is about to become. It’s not just the job search looming on the horizon or her lack of a boyfriend that’s got her stomach in knots - rather, her dad has been missing for almost a decade, and no one knows what happened to him.

When Uncle Edgar mysteriously arrives back onto the scene, he comes armed with some interesting new ideas about what may have happened to Vera’s dad - and an even more revolutionary idea of how to find him. With nothing short of bending time and space, Edgar sends Vera back in time in the hopes that she might find the clues they need to get her dad home.

As she sifts through the mangled pieces of reality and her altered memories of middle school drama become jumbled in between truth and fantasy, Vera has to choose which elements of her past should stay in the past, and which she might like to incorporate into her future. Time travel is never simple, and there are always side effects - but in this case, it might just hold the key to finding her dad. Will Vera stay sane long enough to find her dad and make peace with the bullies who made her miserable?

Tentatively scheduled for 9:05 am two authors will discuss "And That Started a Fight"



...Once upon a time in America, before helicopter parenting and tending to fragile egos, kids actually grew up. Riding bikes without wearing full body protection, playing unsupervised, and staying away from home until time for dinner were acceptable practices—not parental neglect. Competing in sports and games that ended with winners and losers was how kids learned to accept defeat and relish victory. Daring to stand up to bullies, go skinny-dipping, or trespass to go fishing allowed for good times and better memories—not for counseling. There was a time when brothers, no matter what they were doing, ended up in a fight yet were loyal to each other and always ready for the next bout. If you remember growing up without cable television, organized playdates, and a fear of just about everything, you will enjoy the memoirs of five adolescent boys growing up in New England in the days before dodgeball was illegal.

at 9:35 am Tentatively scheduled Author Sophia A. Boggle will discuss Save Your Book

Tentatively Scheduled for 9:05am  Author Mary T. O'Sullivan

Available on Podcast at anchor.fm/wayne-barber 


This book is a daring callout to today’s business leadership.

Mary O’Sullivan is throwing down the gauntlet by saying it’s beyond time for today’s leaders to throw out the “Chieftain commands all” mentality and embrace 21st century thinking. When this happens, leadership can create great companies with great cultures that hire and guide great employees — who then create great results.

Everyone has had an experience with a “bad boss” or an incompetent manager. Everyone knows someone who embodies the “bad boss” mode of leadership … and Mary O’Sullivan is pointing her finger at those bad bosses. She’s saying flat out, it’s time to change before it’s too late.

Tentatively Scheduled at 9:05 am Author Shane Joseph Hopkins will discuss his new book:


A "Great American Novel" that will Grip Your Imagination and Refuse to Let Go...

When Whistle’s young life takes a dramatic turn in one of the worst ways imaginable, the boy decides it’s time to move on and see what lies ahead. Besides, the pull he feels is far too strong to resist.

Starting out with little to no life experience, Whistle has absolutely no idea where he might end up, or the path his journey will lead him down. But one thing he is quite certain about is that it's going to be one hell of a ride.

This book is filled with extraordinary characters and amazing situations that ramp up the story from the very beginning to the very end.

And through it all, there will be great successes and epic failures. But you'll see that the long trail traveled will definitely be more than worth it in the end.
