Book club favorite, Travis Hunter, author of the upcoming novel, A One Woman Man on book clubs and his new book.
Why are book clubs important?
Meeting with book clubs is one of the few chances I get to meet the readers who support my work and hear what they think — the good and the bad — which makes for a better book the next time.
I’ve met with book clubs in person and over the phone. They’ve reached out to me via email, my website, or word of mouth and if my family schedule (I’m a single dad), writing and promotional schedule permits, I’ll do the book club chat.
Does anything in particular stick out to you about the book club meetings you’ve done over the years?
A 65 year-old man in a men’s book club told me that my novel, The Hearts of Men, made him want to be a better man. At another a woman told me that Trouble Man was the first book her son read on his own. It really touched my heart to hear these things and let me know that I was enlightening people as well as entertaining them with my works.

I’ve never had as much fun writing a book as I did this one. A One Woman Man is primarily about a man who loses the love of his life and thinks he’ll never find another woman like her. He’s raising their child alone, but he lets down his guard and messes with the wrong woman. That decision could cost him everything — his family, his reputation, and his freedom. But that’s just part of the story, and you’ll have to pick it up to find out the rest!
