Dear Book Bits Readers,
Welcoming Fall with New Books and Events!
As the leaves start to turn, we are gearing up for an exciting season of literary events, book signings, and contests. With the Buckeye Book Fair just around the corner, we’re thrilled to introduce you to three outstanding authors, spotlight a dedicated volunteer, and share exciting details about the Buckeye Book Crawl and our Buckeye Book Fort Contest.
Meet the Author: Interviews in this Edition
Don’t miss out on the exciting author and illustrator interviews in this edition! Dive into Just Do Nothing with Joanna Hardis and overcome self-sabotage finding personal growth. Celebrate Andrew Welsh-Huggins’ Andy Hayes Mystery series 10th anniversary with Sick to Death at Spoon Bar & Deli, where suspense meets great craft beer. Plus, for our youngest readers, Jashar Awan’s Towed by Toad will bring smiles and adventures for children and their adult readers!
Volunteer Spotlight: Deb Jenkins
This month, we’re shining the spotlight on Deb Jenkins, one of our incredible volunteers. Deb’s journey with us started last year through our partnership with D+S Distribution, where she took the initiative to write an insightful article about our collaboration. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for storytelling made a lasting impression. Be sure to read the article on Deb’s hard work and perseverance. She’s the passion behind Book Bits: Newsletter!

This sounds like a wonderful event. While I know it is too late for this year, I wondered how one goes about being part of the Book Crawl in the future. I am a children’s book author and would love to be a part of the festivities. Sincerely, Lauren Persons Website: laurenpersons.com
