Laurel, Maryland–Wisconsin offers a great deal, but nothing more exciting than author J.R. Turner. On June 12-13, 2010 J.R. Turner will step onto the streets of Printers Row to spend time getting to know her fans and signing copies of her latest Young Adult Horror novel, SCHOOL'S OUT 4-EVER. This is the second novel in the highly praised Extreme Hauntings series featuring skater girl Kaylee Hensler. Turner will join 15 of her fellow Echelon Press authors in Chicago, IL for the 2010 Printers Row Lit Fest. As one of the Quake authors, Ms. Turner will be charming readers of all ages for two-fun-filled days of books! Also in attendance will be Quake (A division of Echelon Press LLC) authors, Norm Cowie (FANG FACE), Nick Valentino (THOMAS RILEY), Sam Morton (BETRAYED), Marlis Day (THE SECRETS OF BAILEY'S CHASE), and Kieryn Nicolas (RAIN). No one will be disappointed with the chance to meet this extraordinary group of authors at Booth "FF" at the festival in Chicago, IL. The Quake authors will be signing books, talking about eBooks, and doing photo opps with readers over the entire weekend. You can find more information on Printers Row online or contact the Chicago Tribune.

Award-winning author J.R. Turner lives in Central Wisconsin. Some might not find that exciting, but life with her husband and three children keeps her pretty busy and there is never a dull moment. She began writing in high school, and after a decade working as a commercial artist, started her first novel in 1999. Aside from crafts, camping and cooking, she loves holidays. A favorite is Halloween, a combination of spooky supernatural fun and chocolate. J.R. Turner is always on the lookout for new story ideas and loves to hear from her fans.

Turner is also the author of a half dozen adult romance and adventure novels that take readers on all kinds of escapades.

With the young readers in mind, Echelon Press selects their Quake authors very carefully. "We don't want just anyone writing stories for the future generation. What kids read is extremely important. While we want our stories to be fun and entertaining, we also want to ensure that we maintain the importance of good values." Quake, a division of Echelon Press, was developed specifically to reach readers between the ages of 10 and 20, but they have found a much larger audience than expected. "Adults love our Quake books as much as the kids and this is humbling, as they are the ones who ultimately make the decisions on what their kids can read," says owner Karen Syed.

President and CEO of Echelon Press states says "J.R. Turner is one of the most underrated authors in the industry. She has a truly remarkable voice for fiction. When I read her work it is like stepping out of my life and right into the stories. Her books just feel so right you never want them to end."
