CLAY ON THE LINE

Clay on the Line

Today, we celebrate the release of Clay McLeod Chapman‘s Stay on the Line with a special event: CLAY ON THE LINE!

All day today, author Clay McLeod Chapman, will be stationed in his phone booth, answering your calls live and reading to you, and only you, from the new book.

Experience the rush, the dread, and the fear the characters from Stay on the Line felt answering the call.

Thank you so much to Clay, for giving his time generously to this fun promo idea.

Stay on the Line is out now in paperback and eBook, everywhere books are sold.
