Interview With New York Times Bestselling Author And Screenwriter Geoff Rodkey!

Geoff Rodkey is the New York Times best-selling author of ten children’s books, including a collaboration with comedian Kevin Hart, Marcus Makes a Movie that just hit The New York Times Bestseller list. Geoff’s also the Emmy-nominated screenwriter of Daddy Day Care and RV, among other films. His new novel, Lights Out in Lincolnwood, poses the question: who are we when the lights go out? And when everything else that keeps our day-to-day lives humming: internet, cell phones, cars, planes, trains, water, sewer. In short, who will we resort to becoming if we are cut off from all the markers of our living in the 21st century? In a funny and insightful novel, Lights Out In Lincolnwood, screenwriter and NYT bestselling author Geoff Rodkey poses just that question and the answer....will seem a bit weirdly familiar and prescient. Especially when the soccer dads begin forming a militia... The result is a novel that looks at the kind of cracks in our cultural foundation, the nagging dissatisfactions that we sometimes turn into funny memes but in parallel coverage become fodder for story after story in the media (how many stories on day drinking have you read since the pandemic set in?). And more importantly, Rodkey looks at how we might reshape ourselves in the aftermath. To learn more about Geoff and his work, visit https://www.geoffrodkey.com/
