MICHELLE COX – OVERALL GRAND PRIZE AUTHOR

Near and dear to our hearts is Michelle Cox, the author of the multiple award-winning Henrietta and Inspector Howard series as well as “Novel Notes of Local Lore,” a weekly blog dedicated to Chicago’s forgotten residents. She suspects she may have once lived in the 1930s and, having yet to discover a handy time machine lying around, has resorted to writing about the era as a way of getting herself back there.

Her work has received multiple Mystery & Mayhem and Clue Awards from Chanticleer as well as the Overall Grand Prize Award for Best Book for her book A Spying Eye, in addition to several top-rated reviews and other accolades, so she might be on to something. Unbeknownst to most, Michelle hoards board games she doesn’t have time to play and is, not surprisingly, addicted to period dramas and big band music. Also marmalade.

DIANE GARLAND – Your WorldKeeper – Continuity Senior Editor

An expert in world building and continuity, Diane Garland and her editorial company Your WorldKeeper, specializes in the world of continuity.

She, along with her husband and two cats, have recently relocated to Columbus, Ohio from the Seattle, Washington area.

LISA SPICER – Producer, Editor, Writer

Our local expert on Book to Screen, Lisa Spicer has worked in television, film, and video production for over 30 years as producer, writer, and editor. Starting in the documentary unit at KCTS/PBS Seattle, later on she worked on the Bill Nye the Science Guy show, earning 3 Emmys.

Lisa will lead a workshop called How to Read a Film, with a focus on enhancing your fluency in the language of film. Rooted in the practice of mise-en-scene, learn how meaning is conveyed through elements such as camera angle, set design, motif (shapes), lighting, actors, sound, all of which work together in support of the narrative.

How to Read a Film and Writing Tips & Tools with the Screen in Mind – by Lisa G. Spicer
- Writing for the screen or with the screen in mind, whether narrative or non-fiction (documentary) film.
  
  Ex: From any story, what is selected to be scripted and filmed? How is it framed (what do we see)?
  
  Ex: Screenplays are written in present tense
- As related to writing, film borrows from theater by using elements of mis en scene and motif.
  
  Ex: How do theater directors use props and costume to support the narrative?
  
  Writing for film or with film in mind can be informed by the craft and how films are actually made.
Ex: Basic camera terminology, used throughout entire process: writing, filming, editing.

SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY 2023! A Day to Support and Celebrate Small Businesses! Plus Annual CHANTICLEER CYBER SALE
Small Business Saturday

Saturday, November 25, 2023 is Small Business Saturday – a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for their communities. This year, we know that small businesses need our support now more than ever as they navigate, retool and pivot from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

Chanticleer Reviews and Media is a small business based out of Bellingham, Wash., with an international reach thanks to the Internet. Chanticleer reflects the new era of publishing and content creation for today’s global market of readers and consumers. We began with the advent of digital publishing (e-pubs/digital books) in 2011 that opened up the traditional boundaries of the publishing industry. As with the Gutenberg Press, digital publishing marks a major shift in the art of bookmaking, distribution of written works, and content creation. We are proud and humbled to be play a tiny part of this major shift in the publishing industry. It is from your support, dear Clients, that we are able to do so. Thank you!

The Chanticleer Team, from our Home Office Staff, to our Editorial Team, Professional Reviewers, CIBA Team and Judges, Publishing Team, and Community Builders, is dedicated to helping writers achieve their publishing goals. Our clientele hail from across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, India, Japan, Malta, Portugal, Denmark, Hungary, Spain, Turkey, Scotland, Germany, France, Ireland, Scandinavia, Cypress, New Zealand, Australia, and other nations.

We are truly a “local business with international reach.” We are honored each year when the Chanticleer Community comes together for the Chanticleer International Book Awards Ceremony and Banquet that takes place in April—a truly special event that fosters many new friendships and connections. We are a small independently-owned-business, but it is the individual members of the Chanticleer Community of Writers that makes us mighty.

In the spirit of SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY, we encourage you to shop at your local bookstores and booksellers, to purchase your favorite Indie authors’ works, and to shop at small businesses and your local shops.

Village Books is our local bookseller here in Bellingham, Wash. They are having a great sale also (in-Store and CYBER).

Along with being known as a top twenty bookstore in the U.S., VB is also the Official Book Manager of the annual Chanticleer Authors Conference

and promotes the winners of the annual Chanticleer International Book Awards in their two storefronts.
