#OnThisDayinHistory April 14, 1935 - Black Sunday. A massive storm crossed six states carrying 300,000 tons of topsoil--more soil than was excavated to create the Panama Canal. That project took 7 years. The storm lasted a single afternoon.

Also a brutal year for most writers who aren’t big names or celebs. If you can’t afford a book, take one out of a library, leave a review, share a post, leave sacrificial offerings to the publishing gods etc

COVER REVEAL! My new #mglit #historicalfiction novel is the I SURVIVED series meets THE WAR THAT SAVED MY LIFE set in the Dust Bowl. Coming 8/19/25 from @fsgbooks.bsky.social. I can’t wait to share it with you! #schoollibrarian

Book Cover with title “WHERE ONLY STORMS GROW.” A boy and girl (twins) in 1930s farming attire brace bravely as a huge black dust storm rises behind them. Dirt blows around them and an old farm and windmill stand in the distance. “By Alyssa Colman” is visible at the bottom.
