Award-Winning Author and Podcast Host Ronit Plank Releases Short-Story Collection
Home is a Made-Up Place
Home is a Made-Up Place is a collection of six short stories. The characters are real, and we see them struggle with important life decisions. The reader will experience all of the emotions the characters do - from anger and frustration, to acceptance.
Kirkus Reviews calls Home is a Made-Up Place, "A poignant and melancholy collection of stories about the constant search for a place to belong."
Marie-Helene Bertino, author of Parakeet, says, "Home is a Made-Up Place expertly plumbs the complicated and surprising depths of motherhood and daughterhood while introducing characters who thrill and linger."
Plank will moderate "Neither the Madonna nor Mommy Dearest: How and Why to Write Real Mothers" at the Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP) in Seattle, March 8-11. She will also host several signings at local bookstores in Seattle, including the following:
• March 9, 2023 - University Bookstore 6:00-7:30
• March 11, 2023 - Bad Jimmy's Brewery, Ballard 6:00-9:00
• April 4, 2023 - Ravenna Third Place Books 6:45-8:00
The author will also hold some East Coast events on the following dates and locations:
• April 15, 2023 - The Golden Notebook bookshop, Woodstock, NY
• April 20, 2023 - Author reading at the Norwalk, CT library
Home is a Made-Up Place is available in paperback and e-book, everywhere books are sold.
