The kindness and love that came our way, well, I can't tell you how much it meant to our family. When we felt defeated, you gave us hope for America. Because you are the heart of this country--and we're all in this together. I raise this book in thanks to each and every one… Continue

Hello!
My name is Caitlin Shetterly and I have a new memoir coming out on March 8th from Voice entitled Made for You and Me: Going West, Going Broke, Finding Home. It’s a story about so many things like marriage, parenthood, dreams, food and going west with all the bravado of the Pioneers. But, at its heart, it’s a book and the debilitating effect the Great Recession had on my young, middle class family.
Parts of the story have been featured on NPR…
