Okay, backstory: ten years ago my husband Steve Lieber illustrated a graphic novel called Whiteout, written by Greg Rucka. A while after that, Wolfgang Petersen thought he might want to make a movie based on it, but he [...]
Hey, readers! I know that a significant subset of you are affiliated with libraries in various capacities, and I think that is excellent. On October 9th, I’ll be speaking at the Washington Library Media Association conference in Yakima, Washington.
