Quick note from a friend of mine, John McNichol<\/a>, author of my favorite Catholic steampunk Chesterton-themed YA action-adventure novels<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Howdy, folks!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m putting together a few speaking engagements this summer to help fund the kids\u2019 Steubenville conferences. If you\u2019d like me to come out, spot me a plane ticket, a couch to sleep on, and contact me for a reasonable & affordable fee. Topics? You pick, I deliver!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a link to a few local talks I did for the YA group<\/a>. Enjoy!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I can attest that if you need Catholic-Dad powers in a fun guy with a great sense of humor, he\u2019s your man. \u00a0Makes his living teaching middle school, so you know that he can handle even the rowdies at your parish.<\/p>\n

Spoke to John and he confirms the best way to reach him is via e-mail, jdmcnichol85 @gmail.com. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
