My novels span a century: contemporary "Simple Truth," a mid-century memoir "Growing Up Country," and WWI-era "Go Away Home"

.@IAGovernor’s constant attacks against public schools and educators are causing teachers to resign at record rates! We need leaders who support public education and provide enough resources so all our students have the opportunity to succeed #IA #ISEA https://t.co/5w0bHQcrFC

@tanirby Tangular, I contacted you after you shared your Gees Bend quilt story at the Iowa quilt museum. I'm in Alabama now and wondered about visiting Gees Bend. What might we see? How do we make a connection? Thanks.

@ChuckGrassley Are you proud of the President now, Senator Grassley? Are you proud to see our country and democracy torn apart? Probably not. But what did you expect from someone who has no morals, no respect for law, and no intention of serving anyone expect himself?

Theresa Greenfield looks good to me. Take a look. She may appeal to you, too.

Iowans deserve a Senator who is ACTUALLY going to fight for them, and put the people of our great state first. I’m a farm kid with farm kid values ready to fight for working people. That’s why I’m running for US Senate.

It was a cellar, school and racetrack. What make-believe games did you play in the basement when you were a kid? https://t.co/nKRAHEfPmV
