It would be pretty hard to not have heard of T Kingfisher. With her March release of Wolf Worm, she has been everywhere lately, including a wonderful interview in the NY Times. She is a prolific writer, in recent years releasing three adult titles a year. Kingfisher is an alias for the multitalented Ursula Vernon, who pens middle grade graphic novels. She claims somebody told her when looking for a penname always choice a bird, thus T Kingfisher was born. Let me start by talking […]
Quick Questions with NatalieH: All Aboard the Magical Mystery Tour
Hi, Natalie! Thank you so much for agreeing to participate in our Quick Questions Interview series. To get things started, would you please tell us how you found Cannonball Read, how long you’ve been participating, and what your favorite part of it is?

CBR Diversion – Titles on Skis
It is cold and snowy (at least where I live) and that stupid rodent predicted 6 more weeks of this. What can you do to combat this darkness? You could snuggle up in a comfy chair with a cup of tea and a good book, you could binge watch the Olympics, or you can log on to Cannonball Read and come up with some crazy book titles! I vote for the last one. This diversion, I challenge you to “improve” the title of a book […]
