Marquette University School of Dentistry Launch
We were deeply honored by the Dean of the MUSoD when he hosted a book launch for our latest publication, Glass Storm. We had an engaging conversation with the attendees, discussing the themes, stories and characters that make our book standout. We signed copies for those who were interested, and shared some insights on the publishing industry and the writing process.

Stoughton Public Library Launch
The tornado that struck Stoughton is something that we will never forget. In order to give back to the community that means so much to us, we donated a portion of our book's proceeds directly to the library fund. We are thrilled to announce that our book launch was a huge success, and we are grateful to everyone who has helped share the story of Stoughton's perseverance.

Carroll University Bookclub
Our book is a compelling and emotional read that captures the harrowing experience of a natural disaster. It explores the human spirit and what it means to come together in difficult times. Sally's alma mater, Carroll University, invited us to their monthly book club meeting. We are lifelong lovers of literature and passionate about sharing the power of storytelling with others.

Phuture Phoenix Day at Eisenhower Elementary
We made an appearance at Phuture Phoenix Day, hosted by Mary's alma mater, the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay at Eisenhower Elementary in Green Bay. We’ve always loved literacy and have been passionate about helping students navigate college planning. As tornado survivors ourselves, we sought to create a book that could act as a guidebook to help families better understand tornado safety. Our aim is to provide families with a roadmap to start important discussions and ultimately stay safer during tornado season.

Family Literacy Night at Swallow School
This book has been an incredible collaborative effort, born out of the Lovell's interest in weather and desire to educate others about the dangers and formation of tornadoes. Their book has been presented through interactive classrooms throughout the day, and to families at night. It is an excellent resource for anyone looking to learn more about tornadoes, and we hope that it inspires future generations to study weather and other natural phenomena.
