I would like to extend my gratitude to Drew Wichterman at the Tipp City Public Library who did most of the heavy lifting to pull this event together.
And a big thank you to Bill Martino and his staff at the Clark County Public Library who hosted the panel at their beautiful facility in Springfield, Ohio.
And I would also like to express my appreciation to Luke Dennis at WYSO who made my participation possible.
