David Florig Author Talk

Maine author David S. Florig is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of his third novel, Negative Peace, in
November. Negative Peace follows the journey of Joshua Sheehan, a Bucksport, Maine native who rises from Mayor of
Bucksport to President of the United States. He has a plan - he wants to create a lasting world peace. It might only be
Negative Peace, but it would be a start. What could be any easier?

Since the Olympic sport of curling plays a role in Negative Peace, audience members will be introduced to the sport and
given the chance to touch and feel a genuine curling stone made of 60-million-year-old Scottish granite. They will also
learn the basics of the game and the peculiar, specialized equipment that it is played with. All of this just in time for the
2026 Winter Olympics in February! And, oh yes, we will talk about peace, both Positive Peace and Negative Peace.
The author will read from his new book and answer audience questions.
