The Campaign (Coming Soon)
What happens when toxic Chicago politics infects a sleepy suburb?
Caitlin O’Murphy and Michael Witkowski want to make LaValle a better place to live, but Tony the Big Cat and Garfield want to win.
As the two good-intentioned amateurs decide to run for mayor of their small town, the two manipulative Chicago campaign managers turn the suburban election into their little win-at-all-costs plaything.
Garfield takes Caitlin. Tony takes Michael.
May the best man win.

Severson writes a compelling satire of all too familiar tricks and lies that are part of political campaigns, small-town or national stage.”

“Although written as a farce, this campaign’s brimming with an underlying integrity you won’t want to miss!”
— Mim Eichmann, author, The Black Chickens
