  • Librarian by Day/Fantasy & Sci-Fi Author by Night: Melody Steiner At the Rectory
    This week we get to talk about one of our favorite subjects At the Rectory -- BOOKS!
    We are joined by writer Melody Steiner to talk about libraries, publishing, and writing. For Melody, writing and sharing stories helped her create a place where she belonged and felt at peace. We talk about the importance of including diverse voices on syllabi and learning from stories that "we didn't know what we didn't know."
    Welcome Melody to the Rectory and follow her social media!
