A reflection on the Unchained Tour...and some news!

Writer Lila Allen had this to say about getting on board with the Unchained Tour this past October. I echo many of her sentiments. I didn't get to tour with the group, but I was able to play a major role in the planning of the tour (and of course helped coordinate the fabulous events in Athens on October 20th!).

Here is Lila's piece.

And here's a little teaser for you, too:  the Unchained Tour might be rollin' back through in a few months.  I know all those who attended round one will be back along with the hoards of people who weren't able to make it to the first show.  I'm very much looking forward to this!

It's not too late to get your Unchained Tour books!

If you're like me, you're pretty bummed that the Unchained Tour of Georgia is over (for now, at least!).  Why not curl up with one of the storytellers' books and relive the magic, humor, and poignancy of that Moth-style storytelling tour?

There's been a lot of good press about this phenomenal tour, but author (and Moth podcast host) Dan Kennedy probably summed it up most beautifully here.

We ordered a lot of books to sell at the October 20th Athens event, but there are limited copies of some titles left. Before we return these books to the publisher, we want to give you a chance to buy them from Avid Bookshop, Athens's independent, neighborhood bookstore.
