Doug Crandell Book Signing - "Hairdos of the Mildly Depressed" September 2, 2008

The Village Writers Group is a community of writers that meets for support, inspiration, and to share practical information. The group meets the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at Wordsmiths Books. The September speaker will be Doug Crandell, author of the new novel, Hairdos of the Mildly Depressed.

Local author and Wordsmiths favorite Doug Crandell returns with the second book in his Beauty Knows No Pain trilogy (the first, Flawless Skin of Ugly People, was beloved by Wordsmiths staff and critical reviewers alike), Hairdos of the Mildly Depressed. Brad Orville always envied his brother Compton's hair. Brad started losing his hair in seventh grade. Compton could score a date with just a flick of his flowing locks. But when womanizing Compton suffers a brain injury from a jealous husband, Brad becomes his brother's caretaker. And while Brad seeks courtship under the cover of a bad rug, Compton joins ranks with a radical ecogroup to save the family farmhouse
