The Texas Book Festival considering "The Nation We Live In." for participation!







Hi George Vance,

Thank you for writing and checking in, and for submitting your book to us this year.

With 2020 leaving us with such a smaller lineup and session capacity (less than half the size of a typical year), we've found ourselves in a smaller box than usual, especially as we still try to cover the same amount of ground program-wise (adult and children's and young adult, fiction and nonfiction, sub-genres of all kinds, and so on).

But the bulk of our committees' curation deliberations indeed last throughout the summer, and few decisions are final until early September. And THE NATION WE LIVE IN remains among our list of books under consideration.

That being said, we will notify you as soon as our review process is complete, and we have made our final decisions. Thank you again, sincerely,

Texas Book Festival

Visualize with me, the streets and sidewalk you used to actually walk or peddle bike upon, now outwardly sporting these various and competing brand's scooters. How does it work? Well, I imagine, the usage methods are similar to the Uber, and Lyft ride-share models. First, download the scooter brand mobile phone application, next input a credit card for automatic payment, then locate a scooter to use, and finally scan, start, and go. I'd bet it is a pretty simple process. Isn't simplicity always the #1 goal of consumer te...

The Vance Collection The Nation We Live In , $13.50 on Amazon.   "The next best thing to sharing a couple of beers and conversation with a new friend, George Vance McGee's The Nation We Live In is a collection of essays and tales set mostly in Austin, Texas but ranging all over the map in subject matter. Whether you agree or disagree with the amiably opinionated author, you'll find yourself engaged, sometimes surprised, and always ready to keep reading. Highly recommended."  Online Book Reviewer Click here; The Nation We Live In a Collection of Essays and Short Stories "Mr McGee offers a collection of life adventures and bounding travel tales that light up the imagination and tether the reader to his positive view of the world.
