Eric Goodman is the author of seven novels including Curveball, published in May 2024. About Curveball, novelist T.C. Boyle has commented: “Eric Goodman’s Curveball dwells in its details in the most fascinating way—and it reaches far beyond its baseball setting to become a first-rate intergenerational drama as well as a delightful read.”     

Goodman lives in Sonoma County and Mecklenburg, NY, with his wife and grown-up COVID kittens. He was the longtime creative writing director at Miami University (Ohio), and he’s taught at the Iowa Summer Writing Festival for many years. This will be his first summer back since before the pandemic.  And he is pumped.
