Looking for some great autumn reading? Read on!
ANTHOLOGY
WriteOn Joliet will release its first anthology Write Where We Are in approximately six weeks. The editing/formatting is nearly done; the cover art is being designed, and the goal is to upload the manuscript to Createspace this weekend.
The anthology will contain essays, poetry, short stories, one novella, and one excerpt from my BryonSeries prequel in progress, Before the Blood.
Copies should be available online Nov. 1 with autographed copies on Nov. 17 at WriteOn Joliet's anthology release party, 6 p.m., at The Book Market, 2365 Plainfield Road in Crest Hill.
But you don't have to wait that long to score some great reads.
AUTHOR FAIRS
A number of WriteOn Joliet authors (including moi) will be participating in the following events. I'll be raffling off a basket of BryonySeries stuff and giving away a chapter from Before the Blood as a thank you gift for signing up for my newsletter, which begins in 2018.
White Oak Author Fest:
When: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.,
Where: White Oak Library, Crest Hill Branch, 20670 Len Kubinski Drive, Crest Hill
One item in the BryonySeries raffle basket are these Bryony-themed coffee holders, with two complimentary Keurig cups, one to drink and one to share. Here they are, ready to ship from their creator to me. Aren't they pretty?
