Littsburgh’s co-founder Rachel Ekstrom Courage (also a literary agent and author) joined Heather Abraham on Talk Pittsburgh again this week alongside Jessica Strawser, author of The Last Caretaker!
“Our book of the month, called The Last Caretaker, is an empowering and provocative page-turner about what a person will risk to do what’s right. We were joined by the author, Jessica Strawser, and the founder of Littsburgh, Rachel Ekstrom Courage.”
Rachel’s going to be dropping in to Talk Pittsburgh on the first Monday of every month to talk about books and Pittsburgh (and, our favorite: Pittsburgh books!), and we’re so excited to be celebrating Pittsburgh’s literary scene with Heather Abraham and KDKA – so watch this space!
