• • As stated on its website, National November Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is a “fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to creative writing.” On November 1, participants begin working toward the goal of writing a 50,000-word novel by 11:59 p.m. on November 30. To become a participant, register at https://nanowrimo.org. Stop by Mad Goat Coffee South through the Month of November to learn more about the writing and publishing process as you work toward your 50,000 words. For adults, ages 18 and older. See our Events page for exact dates and times.
  • Introducing inkie.org!

    Inkie.org is a suite of resources – available to everyone in Illinois at no charge – that support local authors with online creation and publishing tools and allow readers to access locally-produced content.

    Users can create and publish an e-book, share their e-book with readers all over the state, and find local and independently published e-books to read.

    Inkie.org is a partnership between RAILS and BiblioBoard. RAILS provides these services without fees to libraries or residents, as part of our tax-supported services and as a pillar of our e-content strategy.
