Episode description

Whether you are middle grade or middle-aged, this episode has a book recommendation for you! Join us for a laugh and a chat with Austin area humor writer Wendi Aarons. In the last year she has written two books with funny leads. The first is, "Ginger Mancino, Kid Comedian," about a funny adolescent girl that is trying to find a new voice in her stand-up comedian career, all while she navigates the sometimes funny, sometimes not, world of middle-school friendships. The second, humorous memoir "I'm Wearing Tunics Now" chronicles Aarons' personal experience navigating professional pursuits, friendships, and fashion in middle age. Beyond book talks, hear the role libraries played in Aarons' writing over the years as well as ideas on how libraries can support local authors! Hosted by librarian Cate Sweeney.
