Recording with Our Mystery Man John Valeri (@OyeJohn52) about our #buddyread of MURDER IN THE SMITHSONIAN by Margaret Truman. Why is Emily looking gobsmacked in the first picture?! John dropped a bombshell about Truman. You can hear all about it on Ep 220, dropping on 11/5.
John is also a writer and now is the perfect time to pick up a copy of TRICKS AND TREATS: A Collection of Spooky Stories by Connecticut Authors which includes John’s story “Just Cause.”
