It's taken some work to get to this point but we finally have some good news for you. In the next few days, we'll be introducing you to our first featured local author, Lisa Muir. We are so excited to be a part of her journey as an author and can't wait to share more about her and her wonderful book of short stories. Join us on social media to get the most up-to-date news about what's happening at Foggy Pine Books--Twitter usually sees everything first! Stay tuned!

We are over-the-moon excited about our new local author but since it's not quite time to release the book, and we're jonesing for more local artists, we thought you might be too! So, we've compiled a list of excellent authors from or working in North Carolina. This state has played host to some really remarkable talent over the years and I have the fortune of being able to connect you with these incredible writers. This list consists of Appalachian literary fiction, nonfiction, young adult, science fiction, and short stories--summer reads for everyone. Click each book cover to view it's Goodreads page and discover a new favorite author. Now, without further ado, 15 books by NC authors you just HAVE to read:

Cats are adorable creatures. They are one of the most popular pets around the world, and humans certainly love to have cats as their companions. Contrary to the popular assumption that they are distant and aloof, cats are actually generally friendly and endearing in real life. In fact, many cats love to snuggle with their humans. Because of these interesting and lovable characteristics of cats, they have also become one of the best characters in fiction stories about animals. If you love cats and you want to write a great story about your feline friends then this article https://www.williamandtibbybook.com/writing-the-purr-fect-story-tips-on-how-to-write-a-fiction-book-about-cats/#comment-1 is especially for you. Below are some tips on how to write a fiction book about cats to help you come up with your own “purr-fect” story.

I am chapter president of Beta Upsilon Chapter, which is part of the NC Delta Gamma Kappa society of educators. We have a scholarship that we are trying to raise money for to provide funding for our members for professional or personal development.

NC Delta Kappa Gamma is hosting a convention in April, and we would like to sponsor a vending table with books from NC authors. We would like to sell these books for $8 to $10.

We are asking if there any NC authors who would be willing to donate some of the books for our table with the intentions of advertising their books. In addition to advertising their books, we will place their website link to our chapter website link for more opportunities for selling books.

If an author is willing to donate books (as many as possible), please send them to me at

You can call me at 252-714-4335 if you have questions. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks for your help.
