Spent a great morning with Kyle Kellams of NPR-KUAF's Ozarks at Large podcast in Fayetteville. In this episode we discuss details from my novel Lost Letters and living in Germany during the 1980s, as well as the design of the book, the writing and research. Also mentioned upcoming book signings at Pearl's Books in Fayetteville and Two Friends in Bentonville.

I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Tom Hapgood, longtime professor and cornerstone of the University of Arkansas's graphic design program. Tom's compelling journey begins in New England but truly takes flight in Cold War-era Germany, where he lived as a "third culture kid" and witnessed history unfolding firsthand. Those transformative years abroad didn't just shape his identity-they continue to fuel his academic work, drive his creative innovation, and recently inspired his authorship of "Lost Letters," a novel that memorializes the military brat experience during one of history's most pivotal eras.

Ian Sanders runs a fabulous podcast called Cold War Conversations, and on this episode I told him some stories about growing up in Karlsruhe, West Germany, during the 1980s as an Army BRAT and we also talk, of course, about my novel Lost Letters that takes place during those years.
