ROUNDING UP WRITERS IN WYO: The fall 2006 Wyoming Library Roundup is filled with stories on books and authors, thus its title: “Books & Authors.” It includes a feature story on the 2007 Wyoming Book Festival in Cheyenne which also celebrates the recently-completed Equality State Book Festival in Casper. This reflects the fact, voiced by my boss Milward Simpson, director of Wyoming State Parks and Cultural Resources, that “Wyoming is becoming known nationally and internationally as a ‘hotbed’ of great writers.” Also in the issue is the annual “Twelve Wyoming Books for Christmas” and profiles of authors Mary Gillgannon, Kevin Holdsworth, Eugene Gagliano, Margaret Coel, and the members of Bear Lodge Writers in Sundance (see their links on wyolitmail sidebar). Kudos to editor/designer Tina Lackey and assistant editor/writer Susan Vittitow for a stimulating and good-looking publication. Labels: bookfests, libraries, writers
