Eoin Colfer has signed on to contribute an original story to The Read Quarterly (TRQ). He has become well-known as the author behind the Artemis Fowl children’s books series.
Colfer’s story will be called Holy Mary. The editorial team plans to release this piece in four parts throughout the year.
Here’s more from the press release: “Launching in January 2016, The Read Quarterly will be a forum in which global children’s literature can be discussed and debated. Created by children’s literature enthusiasts, each with a wealth of experience in the publishing industry, Sarah Odedina and Kate Manning, this quarterly magazine will provide an environment in which both writers and readers can share their enthusiasm, introduce new ideas and challenge old ones.” (via School Library Journal)
