SUMMARY:Meet the Author - Steve Tindall
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Author!\nVisit us on Friday\, August 4\, 2023 at Studio Moonfall from 11am to 2pm to meet author\, Steve Tindall.\nHang out at the shop and take a peek inside their book\, Underway!:\nWhat was it like being aboard a US Navy destroyer in the 1970’s? Having spent five years aboard two of them I sat down and chronicled my experiences underway. Ports of call\, meals underway\, the rigors of operations\, the sights\, smells\, and sounds of being on the “big water” are all shared with the reader. It wasn’t glamorous but it was full of excitement\, adventure\, and learning how to transform from directionless teen to mature adult. So cock your cover at a salty angle\, hitch up your bell bottomed jeans\, and prepare for the ride of your life.\nGet a sneak peek at Underway! at https://bookshop.org/a/9574/9781688987746\nSteve Tindall was born in the small town of Amboy\, NY\, just a little West of Syracuse. After graduating from high school he joined the U.S. Navy\, where he learned electronics\, security\, and how to make his bed properly. He served on two destroyers and spent the final two years of his nine year enlistment instructing at the Naval Training Center\, Great Lakes\, IL. He transitioned to the data networking field\, specializing in capacity analysis and protocol interpretation. He wrote several work related articles for various publications including a two year stint as the editor of a satirical monthly newsletter designed to improve morale at work. He retired on April Fools Day in 2016 and spends his time improving veterans lives and educating the public about our military history.\nSee you from 11am to 2pm on Friday\, August 4\, 2023 at Studio Moonfall\, 5031 7th Avenue with Steve Tindall!

SUMMARY:Meet the Author - D. Lieber
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Author! \nVisit us on Friday\, August 11\, 2023 at Studio Moonfall from 11am to 2pm to meet Fantasy/Romance Author\, D. Lieber. \nHang out at the shop and take a peek inside their book\, Once in a Black Moon: \nChicago journalist Erin Nichols isn’t about to give up when she’s fired for writing an exposé. But when a combination of murder\, magic\, and celestial events transports her through time and space to Canada’s western frontier\, city hall corruption becomes the least of her worries. \nPanicked and adrift\, she awakens in a body not her own\, which was found left for dead in the wilderness. \nErin is relieved to take shelter with the local Mountie-the picture of upright Canadian fortitude. But as tragedy stalks the nearby First Nation reserve\, Erin learns from a Romanian mystic that magic is dying\, and the fae are turning to their darker natures to survive. \nWhile the reserved and sexy Mountie helps her navigate a time in which she doesn’t belong\, the mysterious and seductive conjurer helps her try to find a way home. As they alight feelings and desires Erin never knew she was capable of\, she begins to wonder where she truly belongs. \nGoing back could cost her heart but staying could cost her life. \nGet a sneak peek at Once in a Black Moon at https://bookshop.org/a/9574/9781951239008 \nD. Lieber has a wanderlust that would make a butterfly envious. When she isn’t planning her next physical adventure\, she’s recklessly jumping from one fictional world to another. Her love of reading led her to earn a Bachelor’s in English from Wright State University.\nBeyond her skeptic and slightly pessimistic mind\, Lieber wants to believe. She has been many places—from Canada to England\, France to Italy\, Germany to Russia—believing that a better world comes from putting a face on “other.” She is a romantic idealist at heart\, always fighting to keep her feet on the ground and her head in the clouds.\nLieber lives in Wisconsin with her husband (John) and cats (Yin and Nox). \nSee you from 11am to 2pm on Friday\, August 11\, 2023 at Studio Moonfall\, 5031 7th Avenue with D. Lieber!

SUMMARY:Jennifer Chiaverini\, author of Canary Girls\, at Blue House Books
DESCRIPTION:Historical fiction author Jennifer Chiaverini is coming to Blue House Books! \nWe are thrilled that Jennifer is joining us during her book tour for her latest release\, “Canary Girls\,” a lively and illuminating novel about the “munitionettes” who built bombs in Britain’s arsenals during World War I\, risking their lives for the war effort and discovering camaraderie and courage on the soccer pitch. It’s Rosie the Riveter meets A League of Their Own! \nJennifer will be doing a reading from her latest novel\, taking questions from the audience\, and signing books for excited readers! This event is FREE but registration is required. \nABOUT THE BOOK \nEarly in the Great War\, men left Britain’s factories in droves to enlist. Struggling to keep up production\, arsenals hired women to build the weapons the military urgently needed. “Be the Girl Behind the Man Behind the Gun\,” the recruitment posters beckoned. \nThousands of women—cooks\, maids\, shopgirls\, and housewives—answered their nation’s call. These “munitionettes” worked grueling shifts often seven days a week\, handling TNT and other explosives with little protective gear. \nAmong them is nineteen-year-old former housemaid April Tipton. Impressed by her friend Marjorie’s descriptions of higher wages\, plentiful meals\, and comfortable lodgings\, she takes a job at Thornshire Arsenal near London\, filling shells in the Danger Building—difficult\, dangerous\, and absolutely essential work. \nJoining them is Lucy Dempsey\, wife of Daniel Dempsey\, Olympic gold medalist and star forward of Tottenham Hotspur. With Daniel away serving in the Footballers’ Battalion\, Lucy resolves to do her bit to hasten the end of the war. When her coworkers learn she is a footballer’s wife\, they invite her to join the arsenal ladies’ football club\, the Thornshire Canaries. \nThe Canaries soon acquire an unexpected fan in the boss’s wife\, Helen Purcell\, who is deeply troubled by reports that Danger Building workers suffer from serious\, unexplained illnesses. One common symptom\, the lurid yellow hue of their skin\, earns them the nickname “canary girls.” Suspecting a connection between the canary girls’ maladies and the chemicals they handle\, Helen joins the arsenal administration as their staunchest\, though often unappreciated\, advocate. \nThe football pitch is the one place where class distinctions and fears for their men fall away. As the war grinds on and tragedy takes its toll\, the Canary Girls persist despite the dangers\, proud to serve\, determined to outlive the war and rejoice in victory and peace. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nJennifer Chiaverini is the New York Times bestselling author of more than thirty novels\, including “Switchboard Soldiers\,” “The Women’s March\,” “Resistance Women\,” “Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker\,” and other critically acclaimed historical fiction\, as well as the beloved Elm Creek Quilts series. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame and the University of Chicago\, she lives with her husband—and\, occasionally\, their two college-student sons—in Madison\, Wisconsin.
