Good morning!
Today I have nine features and news stories to share with you today with more stories are coming today and over the weekend. So be sure to check back on The Herald-News site: shawlocal.com/the-herald-news.
If you're a writer, want to be a writer, or know someone in the Will/Grundy counties area that fits that description, be sure to check out this event. It's free but seating is limited and registration is required.
Also, WriteOn Joliet returned to the digital media center at the downtown branch of the Joliet Public Library last night continue editing the radio play we presented at the Billie Limacher Bicentennial Park Theatre in Joliet on April 22. We are now halfway through with the editing, hurray!
Also, if you missed that radio play the first time, you will have another opportunity at 10 a.m. Sept. 9 at the downtown branch of the Joliet Public Library. More on this later.
Not much as has changed in the BryonySeries world. I had lots of "life" catching up the last couple of days; I've re-read through some of the projects-in-progress; and spent quite a bit of time on the BryonySeries reference guide last weekend.
A quick recap:
House on Top of the Hill: Third book in the BryonySeries Limbo trilogy. I now have a good working draft of the entire book and two chapters that are ready for final edits.
Cornell Dyer and the Howls of Basketville: The next book in The Adventures of Cornell Dyer subseries is finally in production. We can't wait to release it into the hands of readers.
You can find other titles in the series here. Timothy has not yet added our latest titles to the BryonySeries bookstore. But all titles are also on Amazon.
Karla Joins In: The fourth book in The Girls of the BryonySeries series. Eight chapters are completed. and ready for their final edits; four more to go. Jennifer Wainright iw working the cover.
Jennifer designed the covers for Julie and the Too-Hard Homework, Katie and the Big Fear, and Summer Sisters, as well as frontispiece for Lycanthropic Summer. I can't wait to see her "Karla" illustration.
BryonySeries reference/guide book: Welcome to Munsonville: the People, Places, and Things of the BryonySeries. I'd love to have this one ready by the end of the year. Pecking slowly at it.
A Year of Shadows and Moonlight, of Gathering Blooms in the Woods: A rather unusual, poetic novella in the second person. Half of it is written and edited and another half is loosely written. Rebekah is also playing around with art for the cover.
Rebekah is also slowly updating the BryonySeries YouTube and Pinterest accounts. And she' catching up with Kindles for some of the BryonySeries books. So do watch for those.
Now back to the stories. Simply click on the link of the story that looks interesting to you. Happy scrolling!
But before the stories, I have a list of additional resources and information. Please check them out, too.
Finally, if you'd like to find more kindness in your life, consider this book.
And have a great Friday!
