Just In Case You Were Wondering

Speaking Me, a Youth Anthology is....

in printing mode! 17 youth authors with amazing work - poetry, short memories of life, love, and other things...will be published shortly.

With funding from CAAP (Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs), we are excited to roll out this book in the next few weeks.

I was promised the books by early next week. I'm hoping to have copies by end of this month to writers and start the promotions by December.

I will keep you posted on this as soon as I get new information. Thanks to everyone for the progression of this project.

Osbey Books, Inc. will begin to seek new material for Speaking Me, Volume II between January 10 - Early April 2008. Good luck to all writers.
