Resources For Indiana Readers - And Writers?

 I spent a little time this morning doing some research for "Chasing Ashes" on the website for the Indiana government, as well as a few other places.

I found Indiana's State Library hosts The Indiana Center for the Book:

...a program of the Indiana State Library and an affiliate of the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress. It promotes interest in reading, writing, literacy, libraries, and Indiana's literary heritage by sponsoring events and serving as an information resource at the state and local level. The Center supports both the professional endeavors and the popular pursuits of Indiana's residents toward reading and writing.

It has links, but only one I want to feature here: Novel Conversations. Although the program seems to be in a bit of turmoil, it seems worth acknowledging (and hopefully, promoting) its existence. Calling it making amends for belittling the state's effort at promoting writers. I followed the link to its reading list, only to find myself overwhelmed. The list looks broad and deep. Likewise, its Unearthed Novel Conversations Collection.
