Author Interview

Catoosa County News sent an e-mail and wanted to do an interview for The Championship Game

Heather Gentry from Catoosa County News did the interview at the Ringgold office. She was very nice, and asked questions about the book, and books that I am writing.

We went to Ringgold High School and she took pictures of me and the book on the baseball field.

Please check the webpage or stores to buy the newspaper for the article.
