The Book Nook

Clever premise in fantasy series starter

 

The plot description for A. J. Hackwith’s novel “The Library of the Unwritten” is rather unusual – a demon, a muse and a librarian join forces to find a character that escaped from its book.

Around the Block

I don’t know where I first heard the phrase “Dark Night of the Soul,” but given my personal history and education as a philosopher it could have been in any number of the untold books I’ve read in my 49 years.

Letters to the editor

In the early years of 2000’s, Eva Wolf talked about having a trail from Black Earth, to the High School, to Mazomanie. Well, it took a few years to get the details worked out. With the help of many partners, volunteers and local governing bodies, the Wolf Run Trail was born. It spans 2.5 miles from the High School to Mazomanie.
