Laurel, Maryland–New Lenox, IL author Norm Cowie (FANG FACE) will join 15 of his fellow Echelon Press authors on the streets of Printers Row in Chicago, IL for the 2010 Printers Row Lit Fest. As one of the Quake authors, Cowie will be mingling and entertaining readers of all ages for two-fun-filled days of books! Along with Norm Cowie will be Quake (A division of Echelon Press LLC) authors, J.R. Turner (SCHOOL'S OUT 4-EVER), Nick Valentino (THOMAS RILEY), Sam Morton (BETRAYED), Marlis Day (THE SECRETS OF BAILEY'S CHASE), and Kieryn Nicolas (RAIN). This–more than a little–lively group will embrace young readers (sometimes literally) at Booth "FF" on June 12-13, 2010 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.

Norm Cowie is the author of three humor novels, including FANG FACE, his new Young Adult vampire book. He’s qualified to write about teens because he has two daughters who have gone through junior high, high school and the fifty hours of mandated parental-supervision Illinois driver’s education program. And because of his experience with blood-suckers (he works with attorneys during the day), he is also highly qualified to write about vampires. He’s a regular speaker at schools, Boy & Girl Scouts and won’t shut up at the dinner table. And, um, don’t believe the rumors about his baldness.

His previous books were The Adventures of Guy … written by a guy (probably) and the award-winning The Next Adventures of Guy … more wackiness and short stores in the anthologies Heat of the Moment and Missing.

Echelon Press is tickled to bits with their Quake authors. The fresh and innovative stories for young readers are great fun. 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. "I never imagined adults would like our Quake books as much as they do. I think it will help bring parents closer to their kids by giving them something in common to talk about," says owner Karen Syed. The authors not only put their hearts into every book they write, but they live for the personal interaction with readers. This fact has made them festival favorites across the nation.

President and CEO of Echelon Press states calls Norm Cowie "One of the funniest guys I've ever met. His wicked sense of humor shines through in his writing and you can't help but laugh out loud when reading his books. It's such a relief to find good clean humor in books. Reading should be fun for kids!"
