2018 Moonbeam Children's Book Award Results
"Creating books that inspire our children to read, to learn, and to dream is an extremely important task, and these awards were conceived to reward those efforts."
Feature
Prepping for NaNoWriMo
"Get the most interesting, exciting, or tense scenes down on paper when the inspiration hits. The best way to keep writing 2,000 words day after day is to write what moves you."

"In her five years working at Old Firehouse, event coordinator Renee Becher has spoken with folks from places as far away as Ireland, Austria, and New Zealand, to name a few. She enjoys seeing how a love of literature can bring people from far off places together"
Tech Desk
From the Tech Desk
"Trying to discover a book through a speaker is an odd thought, in part because it takes away some of the control we have. As readers, it’s natural to want to take a book down off the shelf and read the flap before we decide to invest much time in it."
Indie Groundbreaking Book
Indie Groundbreaking Book: Growing Influence
"It’s the difference between having an enlightening conversation with a friend and watching a keynote speaker up on a stage. Both experiences have value, but the former is inherently more personal and typically more memorable."

Fresh News Straight from Heavenby Gregg Sapp "Fog Mother raged with wild laughter as the blaze engulfed her, even louder as her skin began to sizzle, and continued until long after she should have been dead. The smoke of her burning flesh smelt sweet, like wood from a sassafras tree, but as people breathed it in, they were sickened." |
