(Brookville, IN) – The Franklin County Public Library District will welcome author Kim Howard to the Brookville Library next Monday, October 21.
Howard will take part in a special story time and host a writer’s workshop.
Her visit is paid through a grant from the Indiana Authors Awards Speakers Program. This program has sent past and current Indiana Authors Award winners and finalists to organizations across the state.
Howard is a relatively new author. Her book Grace and Box was the winner of the 2022 Indiana Author’s Award in the children’s category and represented Indiana in the 2023 National Book Festival. She also authored Do Mommies Ever Sleep?
Howard will read both of her books, and will share songs and games to go along with them at 10 a.m. at the Brookville Library. Later in the day at 1 p.m., she will host a writer’s workshop geared toward students in grades 2-5, but is open to all. Howard will share her brainstorming and planning methods, work through writing exercises, and share feedback.
Writers planning to attend the workshop are asked to bring notebooks to jot down ideas.
