Author Kim Howard Visiting Brookville Library

Howard will be joining us for a special story time and hosting a writer’s workshop.

(Brookville, Ind.) - The Franklin County Public Library District is excited to welcome author Kim Howard to the Brookville Library on October 21.

Howard will be joining us for a special story time and hosting 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.

Howard will be reading both of her books, along with sharing songs and games to go along with them at 10 a.m. at Brookville Library. Later in the day at 1 p.m., she will be hosting a writer’s workshop geared toward students in grades 2-5, but 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.
