SUMMARY:Bethany Beach Books Meet the Author: Ryan Effgen
DESCRIPTION:Meet Ryan Effgen author of "Make Nice" at Bethany Beach Books on Friday\, July 31st at 630pm!\n\n\n\nAn irresistible comedy of manners as three generations of a family-a snail scientist\, a soon to be divorcee\, her teenage daughter\, a hapless con man and their feckless patriarch-descend on a ritzy Lake Michigan vacation island.  In a story that is as sneakily wise as it is absurdly funny\, Ryan Effgen's debut shows how sometimes the people who bring out your worst-your family-can also be the ones to bring you out of your shell.\n\n\n\nRYAN EFFGEN's fiction has appeared in Best New American Voices\, Fiction Magazine\, Painted Bride Quarterly\, and elsewhere. He has earned creative writing fellowships from the Virginia Commission for the Arts and George Mason University. He works as an instructional designer and lives in Virginia with his wife and children.
