Happy New Year and send in the clones! Today's guest on Attendance Bias is author Elizabeth Beck! Elizabeth wrote the recently published novel, "Summer Tour." "Summer Tour" is a young-adult coming-of-age novel that features a young man named Sam who is forced to move in with his aunt for the summer. Over the course of this fateful summer, Sam meets a group of friends who introduce him to the world of creative life, writing, and of course, Phish!

Elizabeth chose 12/31/19 because not only is this a great show on its own merits, but while drafting her novel, she was stuck on the ending! At MSG, she had a chance encounter that inspired the ending of the novel. It's quite a story!

Over the course of our conversation, Elizabeth and I discuss her background as a teacher and poet, her involvement with the Holler Poets of Lexington, KY, and how sometimes you have to stake your claim on the floor at MSG. This conversation got deep at times and I was IN FOR IT! THANK YOU to Elizabeth for joining Attendance Bias and sharing her story.

Please don't forget to share, rate, and review Attendance Bias wherever you get your podcasts. Enjoy!

You can find "Summer Tour" on Amazon.com
