Friendship IS a powerful thing!

After getting nearly a thousand votes in the MeeGenius Author Challenge, Gwendolyn Conover’s book, Robot Party, won second runner up and will be published today! Said Wandy Hoh co-founder and CEO of MeeGenius inc: “MeeGenius loved Gwendolyn’s book. Out of the hundreds of submissions, Gwendolyn’s story about the importance of taking turns really stood out. We are really excited to publish this book and share it with our community of over one million users.”

Gwendolyn Conover is excited, too. “Sharing books and talking about stories have always been important parts of my relationship with my own kids,” she said, “and to think that kids and parents will read the words I wrote, will share the book together . . . that is an amazing feeling.”

So, what’s next for Gwendolyn? “I will continue to work daily, whether it’s sitting at the computer during one of those golden quiet hours, or scribbling down rhymes on gum wrappers as I sit in the pick-up line at school. I’ve recently finished another picture book, and am continuing work on a middle grade novel as well. I hope you’ll see more Gwendolyn Conover books out there soon!”
