LIBRARY NEWS
We will be having a book signing on Feb. 4th from 11:00am - 2:00pm. It will be featuring to local authors
Mrs. L.R. Barnett-Durham and Mr. E.G. Glover.
L R Barnett-Burham wrote Never Trust a Sorcerer, book one of The Trust Series over 7 years ago.
In September of 2011, she finally took the plunge and self-published the fantasy novel.
Now, only four months later, she's taking that step again to publish Always Trust Your Honor, book 2
of the Trust Series.
L R. likens The Trust Series to Lord of the Rings, stating that it is very much an action packed story of hope.
While writing Always Trust Your Honor, she met her writing partner-in-crime, E.G. Glover and they
finished, Fear the Beast Within, in 37 days. The writing duo is currently working on book 2 of The Fear Series,
Fear the Thirst Within.
The Fear Series is a set of paranormal romance novels about finding where you belong
in the world, even if you're a werewolf or a vampire.
L R is a Jane-of-all-trades, her profession: being the Network Technician for Listerhill Credit Union. She also
paints, makes stained glass, sings, plays guitar, and does any other form of art that she can get
her hands on.
She was born and raised in Florence, Alabama and currently resides in Cherokee, Alabama with her husband James
and her son Patrick.
E.G. Glover is new to the novel-writing scene with Fear the Beast Within. He flirted with the idea of
writing in high school by authoring various poems and short stores. After high school, his interst
turned to music. He played bass trombone in a Jazz band for a couple of years, but
it wasn't until recently that his dream of writing a novel became a reality.
The Fear Series is his first serious work, even though he wrote a few short stories in junior high school.
His hopes with this series are to prove that a romantic story can be told with a male's
point of view intertwined, and still hold it's romanticisms.
E.G. was born and raised in Lexington, Alabama and his interest include writing, music, tinkering
with old audio/visual equipment, theater plays, and watching British made TV and
science fiction dramas. He currently resides in Killen, Alabama with his wife,
Anne, and their daughter, Annika.
