Free of restraints and determined to exist. A letter to a past self and a consideration of a future self. The memoir writers on this panel represent a variety of selves\, born from distinct experiences. Larry Bagneris is the author of Call Me Larry\, A Creole Man’s Triumph over Racism and Homophobia\, his story of growing up gay in New Orleans in the 1950s and political activism in Texas\, where he founded Houston Pride Parade\, then returning to his hometown. Pretty is the memoir of KB Brookins\, a Black Trans writer\, who offers a vibrant portrait of queerness\, masculinity\, and race. Combat veteran JT Blatty writes about her photography and oral history project\, documenting the lives of Ukrainians in the Donbas region in Snapshots Sent Home. The author of numerous novels\, Bernice L. McFadden delves into memoir with First Born Girls\, her family history that traces the entwined generations of mothers and daughters. The panel is moderated by Constance Adler\, author of the memoir My Bayou\, New Orleans Through the Eyes of a Lover and a debut novel Sight Unseen.\n \nThe panel takes place at the Hotel Monteleone\, Queen Anne Ballroom. The cost to attend is $10 or Lit Pass or VIP Pass. \nFor more information\, visit the festival website.

SUMMARY:Teri Weber to Speak and Sign Books at 36th Annual Women in Aviation International Conference
DESCRIPTION:Air Force pilot\, mother\, and children’s book author Teri Weber (Operation AviationTM series) is a featured author and educational speaker at the 36th Annual Women in Aviation International (WAI) Conference\, March 27-29\, 2025\, at the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center\, Denver. \nHer picture books Fly with Mytai\, Toad the Tanker\, and Moose on a Mission will be available for purchase at the on-site bookshop. Teri will sign books at the Authors Connect Meet & Greet on Thursday\, March 27\, 10-11 AM MDT. \nOn Friday\, March 28\, 2:30–3:30 PM MDT\, Teri will lead an educational session titled “Work-Life Integration: The New and Improved Work-Life Balance.” The term “work-life balance” implies two distinctly separate priorities\, but this way of thinking is antiquated and unaccommodating to modern women. Two of the most important elements of life—family and career—do not innately conflict with one another. To foster stronger relationships with loved ones and minimize stressors associated with competing agendas\, we should be instead pursuing “work-life integration.” In this session\, Teri will discuss how to deliberately blur the lines between “work” and “life” to create a more enmeshed\, inclusive\, and sustainable lifestyle for professional women and their families. \nOn Saturday\, March 29\, Teri will attend Girls in Aviation Day\, which brings together girls ages 8-18 for an empowering career panel featuring leading ladies in aviation and aerospace. The Aviation for Girls crew will experience more than 25 unique hands-on STEM activities related to aviation\, flight\, science\, technology\, navigation\, space\, and more lead by role models in the industry. During lunch\, attendees will hear about the career journey of keynote speaker Jessica Cox\, who will encourage attendees to reach for their dreams and design their own destinies. \nThe Women in Aviation International Conference is an annual event that offers networking and mentorship within the aviation industry to approximately 15\,000 participants. \nFind the full conference schedule and registration at the Women in Aviation website.

SUMMARY:National Museum of the US Army Hosts Countdown Storytime
DESCRIPTION:In honor of April’s Month of the Military Child\, the National Museum of the United States Army is hosting a special children’s storytime event featuring Countdown ’til Daddy Comes Home by Kristin Ayyar. The event will take place on Saturday\, April 5\, 2025\, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time at the museum\, 1775 Liberty Dr\, Fort Belvoir\, Virginia.

Preregistration is not required but is recommended. ​For more information about the event\, please visit the National Museum of the United States Army website. \nElva Resa published new paperback editions of Countdown ’til Daddy Comes Home and Countdown ’til Mommy Comes Home as well as new Spanish editions\, Contando los días hasta que llegue papá and Contando los días hasta que llegue mamá\, in March.
