A hearty MN thx to all the good people who drove past while I changed a tire on the side of the road. 6” is plenty of space! Slush felt great cascading over me!

How @RobertFass1 "invigorates the characters thru intelligent pacing & a fine storyteller’s tone" to narrate @petergeye's audiobook about a lesser know winter spot is the subject of discussion to day on Behind the Mic audiofilemagazine.com/podcas…

"You are asking some of the biggest questions that humans ask themselves." — @KerriMPR's truly beautiful interview with @petergeye on The Ski Jumpers. A must-listen. mprnews.org/episode/2022/09/…
A true pleasure to talk to @KerriMPR about THE SKI JUMPERS. Such sincere and reflective questions. We laughed and (almost) cried! @UMinnPress mprnews.org/episode/2022/09/…

Next Saturday! @petergeye visits the store to read from THE SKI JUMPERS ("if you're new to Peter Geye, The Ski Jumpers is the perfect place to start," writes Leif Enger). Free. 6:30pm ET. For more info: literatibookstore.com/event/…
Soldier Field in Chicago, 1954. The whole family story in The Ski Jumpers starts (fictionally) here. Cabaret singers, gangsters, nobodies, they all collide here! 4 days until #TheSkiJumpers launches @UMinnPress
Behold the Telemark Cocktail. It'll be featured at @TheParkwayMPLS on Tuesday night (9/13). I won't spoil all the fixings except to say it's the best cocktail I've ever had. No joke! #TheSkiJumpers @UMinnPress
This is the first big jump I ever took. At Theodore Wirth Park in Minneapolis. Must have been nine years old. It's gone now, but lives on in The Ski Jumpers. @UMinnPress #TheSkiJumpers
My brother and I in Madison, WI fall of 1981 or 82. We grew up jumping together. We still love it. @UMinnPress #TheSkiJumpers
Thought I'd share some photographs that informed and inspired my new novel. This one taken in Lake Placid, NY in 1988. They called me squirrel @UMinnPress #TheSkiJumpers comes out 9/13
I have to/want to invent a cocktail. I'm going to call it the Telemark. What's in it besides aquavit?
COVER REVEAL! Watching the #WinterOlympics and wondering what it feels like to fly? Preorder my next book THE SKI JUMPERS from your local indie. Landing in September. Thanks to @UMinnPress and @C_Casalino for the perfect design! Jon, Anton, and Pops would approve. #haveone
So much kindness from some really wonderful writers. Can't wait for THE SKI JUMPERS to come out this fall. @UMinnPress @jryanstradal @incrediblekdub @reuben100
