C. B. Shiepe Discusses and Signs - CLIFF FALLS - his Best Selling Novel about an exploited child star on the run. Books Inc Palo Alto - Saturday, March 5th at 3pm.

"C.B. Shiepe has struck a chord capturing the core of the 'former child star' syndrome. I sat up through the dark hours reading this book. It kept me turning the pages...and filled me with a sense of hope. As a man who has lived and collected thousands of genuine kid star stories, I highly recommend this illuminating and insightful work." Paul Petersen, Donna Reed/Founder, A Minor Consideration

Charles Slocum, Writers Guild of America, West, said, “A fast, cinematic read, I recognized myself in Cliff FallsThe pressure to perform and to be someone other than who we want to be is universal. C. B. Shiepe has captured that experience and married it to our celebrity-centric culture.”
