Cover of the book 'What Waits Ahead is Way Better' by Rebecca Rine

Vick Mickunas has his first in-studio interview since the beginning of the pandemic with author Rebecca Rine.

Rebecca Rine is a patient person. She sent me her book months ago. We were waiting for the chance to have in-studio guests back on the show again and once we got the all clear to do so we scheduled this interview. It was worth the wait.

Rebecca is a great writer. She's got wonderful sense of humor and she gives great advice. We had so much fun talking about her book!

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public Library, Clark County Public Library, Dayton Metro Library, and Wright Memorial Public Library.
