Library welcomes authors Hoefler, Miller

The Wood County District public library will welcome a bestselling children’s book author and gothic novelist next month.

Join the library to meet author Kate Hoefler on Thursday at 7 p.m. in the Bowling Green library atrium. The author of children’s picture books including “Courage Hats,” “Nothing in Common,” “Great Big Things,’” “Rabbit and the Motorbike,” and more, Hoefler will talk about her books and read some of them aloud.

After her reading, she’ll be available to sign books.

This event is supported by the Marjorie Conrad fund.

Meet local author Anesa Miller on Oct. 12 at 10 a.m. in the 2nd Floor Meeting Room at the Bowling Green library. Miller will discuss her new novel, “I Never Do This,” and sign copies of her book.

“I Never Do This” is a Rust Belt gothic novel that presents the unforgettable voice of a young woman, LaDene Faye Howell, who finds herself in police custody recounting her story after her paroled cousin Bobbie Frank appears and engages her in a crime spree.

Miller is a native of Wichita, Kansas, a graduate of the University of Idaho, a long-term resident of Ohio, and recipient of an Ohio Arts Council Fellowship for creative writing. Her fiction, essays, and poetry have appeared widely, and her previous novel, “Our Orbit,” was a finalist in regional fiction in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.

No registration is required for either event.
