PEORIA, IL -- A new novel titled, The Old Guard, by Tom McKay will be featured at a book signing on Saturday, Feb. 8, from 2-4 p.m. at the bookstore I Know You Like A Book in Peoria Heights on Prospect Road.
The Midwest Writing Center published it, and has information on its website.
McKay writes, "The Old Guard is a funny novel about a young woman who writes a sports blog and suddenly needs help with the blog from her new neighbor, a man who knows nothing about sports.
"The story is full of mix-ups and twists and commentary on some of the absurdities of modern life.
"Mary Davidsaver, author of Clouds Over Bishop Hill, wrote a nice blurb: 'Tom McKay exhibits a deft hand at humor as he crafts a story that uses his lively wit to present serious messages about the need for equal representation for women in sports and the folly of preconceived stereotypes in day-to-day life. The Old Guard is a delightful read.' " -30-
