Cobb County teacher and author to appear at FoxTale Book Shoppe

FoxTale Book Shoppe will host an Emerging Author Book Signing event from 6:30-8:30pm on Friday, August 2nd. The event is free to attend. FoxTale will be selling their published books and the authors will be there signing, taking pictures, answering questions, etc. There are both kids' books and adult books-mystery, suspense, romance, etc. 

The Emerging Author event welcomes self-published and small press authors to showcase their books in a traditional, yet totally untraditional, book shoppe setting.  

Cobb county English teacher, Re Marzullo will be one of the featured authors with her book, SPED. What's so "special" about Special Education? SPED lets you find out. Jack Parker has been content to go through middle school in a SPED small group class for the last two years and stay off the radar of the bullies in his school. While life at Hickory Hills Middle School has been safe for Jack, it has also gotten a bit dull with only four classmates (all boys) to spend the school day with. All of that changes in Jack's eighth grade year when girls and trouble show up in his small group class. Fast paced and funny, SPED tells the story of Jack and his classmates as he handles bullies at school and challenges at home and learns that growing up means taking chances - not only for himself but for those he cares about.

Marzullo says, "Writing is like breathing. If I don't do it, I don't feel so good. This sums up my love of reading, writing, and words in general. My whole life, I've just felt better when I'm creating something."
 
The following authors will also be at FoxTale: Dr. TK Wheeler, Lynne Watts, MR Cornelius, Ed Payne (from CNN),  Leneille Moon, Lynette Austin, L Neyl Rietcheck, Rowena Cala, Deborah Malone and Janie Watts.

The Emerging author event is part of Main Street Woodstock's Friday Night Live Summer of Love celebration.  FoxTale Book Shoppe is located at 105 East Main Street across from the Woodstock City Park gazebo. For more information call 770-516-9989.
