What a true honor and pleasure to write and voice, The Plate, with the good folks at @generalmills . Jano Cabrera gave me a call and said with the holidays coming let's create something that celebrates food, family, and community. I'm beyond humbled by how beautiful, jubilant, and celebratory the final video turned out. It was an absolute joy working with Jano Cabrera, Angie Thompson, Ra'Wi M., Lorenzo Deguia, Matthew Wilkinson, and the General Mills family.

Thanks to my amazing community of readers, Black Curio was a #1 new release for SIX WEEKS! Have you gotten yours?
Black Curio, a collection of short stories by yours truly is available in paperback and as a pdf on my NEW WEBSITE . The link is also in my bio. The cover is by your favorite Chevalier, the one and only Dr. Fahamu Pecou.
Dr. Lia Bascomb says of the book,
"Jon Goode’s Black Curio takes readers through the magic of history, the eccentricity of Atlanta’s Old National Highway, and the promise of futures. With hopeful fables, pandemic stories, frustrating realities, and cautionary tales, it manages to be both fantastical and realistically familiar. Each chapter shows how easy it is to enter into a world of imagination and see your own world anew."
I've gotten some really wonderful feedback on the stories thus far and look forward to hearing your thoughts and reflections on where the stories took you. This is my THIRD book, and I can't thank y'all enough for your support through the years. I'm always grateful and never take it for granted.

#GoodeTimes in Tarrytown! This is my third time out as a storyteller with @mothstories and not a host. I'm starting to get the hang of it. Tarrytown is ALWAYS a joy. Gabbi our host was excellent! The storytellers, Kelli, Diego, John, and Smita were amazing! Until next time Tarrytown!!
