Sands Hall and Amy Tan in a Conversation About Memoirs

Sands Hall will chat with celebrated author Amy Tan in a conversation moderated by Robin Martin, of the  #YeahYouWrite series at Bo’s Kitchen.

In her memoir, Flunk. Start., Sands Hall chronicles her slow yet willing absorption into the Church of Scientology. Her time in the Church, the 1980s, includes the secretive illness and death of its founder, L. Ron Hubbard, and the ascension of David Miscavige. She explores how she has faced the “flunk” represented by those years, and has embraced a way to “start” anew.
