"On Tuesday, December 22nd, eleven Romance authors got together to read original short stories on live radio to raise donations for the homeless and the hungry in Detroit, and to fund the Capuchin Soup Kitchen in Detroit. More authors volunteered than there was air time for on December 22nd, so on Tuesday January 5th, "The Ones That Got Away" will be read starting at TEN A.M. EASTERN.
Loretta Wheeler will read her story "DARK PLEASURES".
Pauline Baird Jones will read 'GETTING A CLUE"
Becke Martin has contributed "SILVER AND GOLD" which will be read as a play with various authors taking speaking parts.
The host is Rowena Cherry.

Audio Children Stories
Greetings!
We are seeking original children's stories (or books) by authors who own the rights to their tales. "The Library Fairy® and Friends" is a storytelling podcast distributed by AIRS-LA for young listeners. This is an audio service only, and stories are performed by Miss Fairy.
Stories should be finely edited, and take the listeners on a wonderful, sincere or adventurous journey. Responses should include a link where we can view the full text of the story, or at least give us an idea. No attachments are opened.
Since author's name and website are given in the broadcast, stories must be available on the author's site in a book or similar format.

28 Days Later
28 Days Later
The Brown Bookshelf is now accepting submissions for our 3rd Annual 28 DAYS LATER.
During the twenty-eight days of Black History Month, we’ll profile a different children’s or young adult author and children’s illustrator. On March 1st, we’ll announce the winner of our grand prize–a gift basket featuring every book profiled during the month, donated to a library in need!
We need your help. We’re looking for the best new and unnoticed works by African-American authors. From picture books to novels, books fresh off the presses to those that have lurked in the background unsung for months or years–whatever books you like, we want to know. We’re specifically looking for new books and books that have “flown under the radar,” that are children’s or Young Adult written by an African-American author published by a traditional publisher for the trade market.
Nominations accepted from September 28th to November 1st. Just post a comment here at the website, or email us at email@thebrownbookshelf.com. You can nominate as many books as you like. Also, check out the 2008 and 2009 28 Days Later campaigns to see who’s already had the spotlight.
So what are you waiting for? Nominate an author! And spread the word!
