My good friend Vince Vawter is about to launch a new novel, Copyboy. Launch date is August 1, 2018.
Vince is the author of the much-acclaimed Paperboy, a 2014 Newberry Honor winner. Paperboy is about a kid, Victor, growing up in Memphis in the 1950s. Victor must deal with a disability and confront the world at the same time.
This second novel picks up the story with Victor as a teenager who is heading to New Orleans on a mission.
But the journey will not be a simple one. Victor will confront a strange and threatening world, and when his abilities and confidence get put to the test, he’ll lean on a fascinating girl named Philomene for help. Together they’ll venture toward the place where river meets sea, and they’ll race to evade Hurricane Betsy as it bears down.
Vince is heading out across Tennessee for a three-city launch beginning in late July. More information about that is here. Good luck, Vince.
