This month’s Buckeye Bookmark is one you will not want to miss.

In honor of Black History Month, we are celebrating the Black authors who help shape the heart of the Buckeye Book Fair, including Savannah Flakes, Florenza Lee, Charity Pleasant, Patricia Sargeant, and Ashley Willow. We are grateful for the stories and perspectives they bring to our community and remain committed to creating space for even more voices in the years ahead.

We are also spotlighting the presentation “Choosing Your Publishing Path: Traditional vs. Independent,” featuring insights from Patricia Sargeant that left writers feeling informed, encouraged, and empowered about their creative journeys.

Plus, we are sharing two reminders! 1. Be sure to register students for this summer’s Buckeye Book Camp and 2. It’s time for authors and illustrators to submit new releases for the 2026 Buckeye Book Fair on Saturday, November 7th.
