Timetable of Tracks Events

As you sit in the passenger seat of a train, you might familiarize yourself with the scheduled stops along the way to your destination and get off for a stretch on the platform in different locations. In the same way, even if you caught one of the past Tracks events or already have your copy of Tracks, you’re still encouraged enjoy some of the stops on the Tracks book tour.


You can find the timetable of scheduled stops at www.tracksnovel.com/appearances.html. Be sure to check back periodically as new events are being added.

Here are some of the upcoming events I’d like to invite you to. Consider this your personal boarding pass.
