Drinking With Authors | Featuring Peter Gribble Guest: Peter Gribble loves studying languages and is currently learning Farsi and Punjabi, albeit slowly. He also loves gardening and has transformed his backyard into a scented paradise. He practices jazz piano nearly everyday, and revels over jazz chords with extensions: 9ths, 11ths and 13ths! Author of The City of Magicians.  Drink of Choice: coffee spiked with a dash of Bailey's Chocolate  Peter Gribble is a writer and a lifelong student of history whose work explores the intersections of knowledge, power, and the human condition. His fantasy series, The City of the Magicians, is set in a civilization that rejects traditional warfare. The series examines how intellect, psychological strategy, and telepathic abilities can be both a society’s greatest strength and its most dangerous vulnerability. Influenced by his childhood in postwar France—where silence about the war was as pervasive as its lingering shadows—Gribble crafts stories that explore the dangers of complacency and the consequences of pacifism and brutality colliding.  All books in the series are now available.  Gribble studied art at Sheridan College School of Design, experimental psychology at the University of Toronto, and education at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. He has written for NUVO and various British Columbia publications, including gardening columns for two journals over a decade. His time working in bookstores reinforced his belief in the power of books to inspire, challenge, and transform.

This family saga revolves around trust and betrayal, love and loyalty, and the will to survive the breakdown of the American Dream. Drink of Choice: I drink so much white wine, somebody should name a grape after me. Chardonnay and sauvignon blanc may sound boring to you, but they are my nightly salvation. If we talk on a warm night, rosé will be on the menu Amy L.

As the author of six novels and a book of inspiration for creatives called Wrangling the Doubt Monster, Amy brings a compassionate and insightful voice to writers' conferences around the country.
