Coming of Old Age Book Flight with Author Kit Tosello (E104)
Description
In today’s episode, I am chatting with Kit Tosello. Kit is an award-winning writer of small-town contemporary fiction with a big heart, as well as insprational essays and devotionals. With her eye trained on the beauty hiding in plain sight all around us, she arranges words with tenderness, humor and ultimately, hope. When not writing, Kit can be found in the loose tea shop she operates with her husband, exploring the great Pacific Northwest, or enjoying the “great indoors” — bookstores & libraries. Most likely with a matcha latte in hand.
Episode Highlights:
- The Color of Home: Kit shares her journey to publication and the emotions of the journey.
- About Kit
