The path to publication: How three Tri-Cities journalists, including a former dailyherald columnist, became book authors
Today's column celebrates that premise, focusing on three journalists who have been around the Tri-Cities a long time in the newspaper, marketing and corporate worlds.
For eight years, King wrote a humorous family column called"Mom's Time Out" for the Beacon News in Aurora, focusing on life with her two young sons, Gregor and Kevin. She later went on to write a community column for the Daily Herald for 20 years. "I thought, maybe I should look into that now," King said."So, I started doing it about three years ago, right around the beginning of COVID."
"But the book is done and I'm happy with it," she said. She'll be selling it on Amazon, but set up her arrangement with the publisher to allow her to sell at bookstores. It is also available online through Barnes & Noble. Former Geneva resident Kurt Wehrmeister has published a children's book,"Cumie, the Brave Little Cloud.
But before that, he wanted to make sure the book featured top-rate illustrations. He turned to his old friend and Geneva Republican newspaper colleague Rick Nagel in Geneva to seek the help of Nagel's daughter, Kathryn. "Some folks wonder why her name is listed first on the cover and the title page because generally the author gets top billing," Wehrmeister said."I insisted on that, simply because her work was a lot harder and took a lot longer than mine.
Wehrmeister and Nagel will sign copies of the book at The Little Traveler in Geneva, where the hardcover version will be available. Dates for the book signings are Friday, July 28, and the weekend of Oct. 13-15. Taking his perspective on things into account, more often than not Cudworth makes a lot of sense and connects the dots on topics man has toiled with for generations.
Yes, that's a tough topic for any of us to wrap our arms around, which is why Cudworth has spent the better part of five years working on it. The timing of the book's debut on Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing certainly provides perspective for the increasingly common clashes between right-wing Christianity and other viewpoints.

New Florida board seeks power over Walt Disney World citiesFlorida Governor Ron DeSantis's newly formed oversight board is seeking to assert control over development in two cities where Walt Disney World Resort is located, the latest twist in a battle for authority over the company's Florida theme parks. A resolution, seen on Tuesday by Reuters, would give the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District board the power to review and evaluate development in the 25,000-square acres of property in and around Walt Disney Co's theme parks. The district would hold 'superior authority and control' over planning, zoning and other land use in the cities of Bay Lake and Lake Buena Vista, under a Florida law that formed the state-appointed oversight board.
