Comments on ‘Tall’

“Whether you’re a six-footer or you top off at five feet, ["Tall"] is a reminder that how you measure yourself is more of a determiner of your success and well-being than any measure on a yardstick.”

– Judy Goldman

. . . . .

“Nancy Stancill takes readers on a grand adventure, from her early life as a painfully shy, 6-foot teenager, to a kickass reporter who learned that height can be power.”

– Cindy Montgomery

Nancy Stancill’s friends packed the back of Park Road Books tonight to hear the author read from her new suspense thriller, Winning Texas.

There was a gray hair or two in this audience of wellwishers – and also a real live teen whose name is a character in the book.

Stancill read a couple of excerpts, then answered questions. She talked about her love of Houston, and West Texas; her visit (with her husband) to a strip club – for research; and what she reads. Video excerpts from the readings and Q&A will be posted below as they are available.
