It's always a joy to interview one of my favorite authors - and Edwidge Danticat is as warm and funny as she is brilliant. She'll be in St. Paul tonight for Talking Volumes! Here's a gift link to the interview:

Going to the Minnesota State Fair Friday? Stop by the @StarTribune stage at 2 p.m. I'll be interviewing two people from Change The Outcome, a Minnesota organization combatting opioid and fentanyl abuse among youth. Powerful stories, useful for parents.
