Beehive Books to Showcase Delaware Author Trace Broyles on Friday Night
Delaware resident author Trace Broyles (@booksbyviolet and @Footballbtrfly1 on twitter) to bring her talents to Beehive Books on Friday, October 26, from 6-8 p.m. for a meet-the-author event at the independent bookstore in downtown Delaware, Ohio.
Broyles was born in northwestern Ohio and spent her childhood forcing her younger brother and sister to put on plays she penned about Care Bears and Smurfs. From there, she moved on to children’s stories – unfortunately works like “Adventures of Super Cookie” were never released to the masses.
