Virtual Author Visits

A microphone graphic with text that reads "Virtual Author Visits."

Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) is excited to bring you Virtual Author Visits in partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium. Join us and hear from bestselling authors and thought leaders on a range of topics, from puzzling science to epic fantasy to decluttering your home. Whether you are an avid or occasional reader, there is nothing quite like listening to insightful talks by authors you have read or new ones you are just discovering. You never know what will catch your interest. Attend these events at no cost from the comfort of home. 

In September, join us on Tue., Sept. 10 at noon for a moving conversation with Garrett Graff. An expert at capturing the human drama, Graff will speak about his body of work with particular focus on his oral histories, The Only Plane in the Sky: An Oral History of 9/11 and When the Sea Came Alive: An Oral History of D-Day.

Next, tune in on Wed., Sept. 18 at noon to explore pathways back to open-minded living with author Nate Klemp discussing the core tenets in his new book Open: Living with an Expansive Mind in a Distracted World. With the avalanche of information we get every day, closing down our minds and hearts seems to be the only way to survive. But what if there’s another way? Register for the access link.

For the last Virtual Author Visit in September, join us on Sat., Sept. 21 at 5 p.m. as we chat with mega-bestselling author Liane Moriarty about her newest novel Here One Moment. The book is a brilliantly constructed tale that looks at free will and destiny, grief and love, and the endless struggle to maintain certainty and control in an uncertain world.
