Note from Carl:

“Please join me to celebrate the launch of my new book, ‘Common Ground for US.’  It was written to share the creative behaviors that prepare each of us to make our way in an unknowable future. It also provides political and community leaders with fresh perspectives on policy and governance that help our nation achieve a sustainable abundance.

The book carries the subtitle ‘Warning: This book makes folks optimistic’ and you’ll get a big dose of that optimism at the event, part reading and part creativity workshop.

I hope to see you there.”

Come out to celebrate the launch of Carl Nordgren’s new book June 4, 6:30-8:00 p.m. at Golden Fig Books in Carrboro.
