The Madness is Returning

That's right, as Spring approaches we gear up for March Madness again!

Last the most heroic character of YA literature battled the most villainous baddies in our second annual March Madness (Voldemort somehow defeated Percy Jackson).

This year we will be pitting YA genres against each other! Each week you will be asked to choose your favorite of two genres as well as your favorite book in those genres. You may vote as often as you like and we will hopefully have an online component for voting as well (both here and on the TAG facebook page!)

Here's a list of the genres that will be competing:

  • Steampunk
  • Fantasy
  • Dystopian
  • Historical Fiction
  • Realistic Fiction
  • Horror
  • Sci-Fi
  • Paranormal
Do you have a favorite? I'd love to hear about it in the comments!

DFTBA,
Sti

You made some clear points there. I looked on the internet for the subject matter and found most people will agree with your blog.

Zaki Con 2019: Cosplay Contest!

The final event  of Zaki Con is our cosplay contest. I assume you're familiar with cosplay if you're reading, but just in case you aren't: cosplay is " the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime." And anyone can do it! Young and old alike are adorable when dressing as their favorite characters from books, movies, and anime! At Zaki Con, we want to see your interpretation of cosplay! You can enter as one person or as a group (though groups will have to share prizes if they win). All you have to do is come dressed as your favorite character. Since Zaki Con is a family event and it is held in the public library, all costumes must be appropriate for our setting and audience! Entries will be judged by a panel of judges from the library and the community. We look forward to seeing your cosplays during the Con and at the contest which will be held at 5:00pm on Saturda

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

 1. Gather supplies.  2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even.  6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
