Your Hometown

Pep Talks, Warnings & Screedsby George Singleton, with illustrations by Daniel Wallace

If you are from a small, small town in any part of the United States, and then you somehow win a one-week trip to Paris, Munich, Rome, London, Barcelona, Athens, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Miami, Sydney, Moscow, New Delhi, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Copenhagen, Addis Ababa, Chicago, Nairobi, Johannesburg, Beijing, Caracas, or New York City, please continue to write about people living in a small, small town. Trust me when I say that the bizarre characters and conflicts that occur in, say, Hohenwald, Tennessee, are far more interesting than a family of bakers swatting flies in Versailles.
