Crazy, Funny, and True: My Stories as a Wandering Bard

  • Summary

  • Leave no book unsigned. And leave no bowl of homemade soup uneaten.

     

    In this episode, T. A. shares some of his favorite adventures from three decades of touring the world on his book tours. We travel from a small town in Alaska, to the top of the Washington Monument, to the island of Shikoku, Japan. From an early book event where no one showed up and even the host left for coffee, to filling bookstores and speaking to thousands at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry!

     

    Join us as we celebrate how T. A.’s creativity has inspired more creativity from fans… producing stories, movies, paintings, magical wreaths, costumes, bird sanctuaries, Merlin sneakers, and homemade soup. (Not to mention original words like mooshlovely!)

     

    We hear T. A.’s own personal journey from a hopeful writer who received only rejections, to a newly published author, to the now successful author of 32 books and counting. From empty rooms to lifelong fans who now join him for enduring, magical, and awe-inspiring journeys.

     

    Tune in to laugh, cry, and fill your heart with the power of story.
