Author's WBRE visit promotes latest Waffles 'page turner'
Published 11.29.2023
Penn College writer/video producer Tom Speicher returned to WBRE's “PA live!” set Tuesday in support of "A Day With Waffles and Alexis," his second book featuring an adorably playful Abyssinian guinea pig.
Speicher discussed the book – which was inspired by the May death of Alexis “Alex” Weisser, the elder daughter of his partner, Maria – with co-hosts Chris Bohinski and Rachel Malak.
"What I really like about the book, and what people tell me is what they liked about the first Waffles book, is the interactivity," Speicher said during the four-minute segment. "Because each page asks the reader a question related to the activity seen on the page."
Speicher twice appeared on "PA live!" after the publication of "A Week With Waffles," which benefited the college's Emergency Scholarship Fund. That award-winning book and its sequel are both available from online retailers and at The Otto Bookstore downtown Williamsport.
