Author Signing with Sean Foy and Timothy Hassett-Salley from 1pm-2pm

About Sean:

Sean Foy is an author and award-winning filmmaker whose stories regularly delve into themes of resilience, self-determination, human connection, and the complexities of family. His debut psychological thriller, The Grotesque, was long-listed (top 2%) for the Cheshire Novel Prize and draws inspiration from writers such as Gillian Flynn and Chuck Palahniuk, and films such as Black Swan and Radio Flyer. The story examines guilt, obsession, and the fragile boundaries between love and trauma. His storytelling is as much about grappling with life's darkness as it is about embracing its profound, messy beauty.

His films, which span the sci-fi, horror, and comedy genres, feature elements of suspense, moral conflict, and often, just plain fun.

Born in Defiance, Ohio, Sean was raised primarily in Pennsylvania and has lived in seven states, having settled in Massachusetts with his wife and two daughters. He is hard at work on his next novel.

About Tim Hassett-Salley:

Over the four decades since he graduated from Providence College, Tim Hassett-Salley put both his majors to good use. The psychology and music double major is a psychotherapist, an executive in the workers’ compensation and disability management industry, and also plays in a band. The Plymouth, Mass., resident recently published a novel, Two Strikes and You’re Out, which draws on some of his experiences as a therapist, and includes a song he composed for the book.
