Why Keep Vermont Weird™? We love the eclectic vibe, the strong sense of community and ultimately the infectious pride that everyone takes in being a Vermonter. A little like the first settlers, we struggle to keep intact that intangible way of being that sets us apart and makes us, well… weird. Keep Vermont Weird™ embodies and celebrates that quest. It is why people love to live here. It is why the people that visit wish they did. This is a mantra that resonates on many different levels. It is a sign of support for all of the amazing local businesses that work everyday to Keep Vermont Weird™. It is a shout out to visitors reminding them that this place is different. And it gives those of us that are lucky enough to call Vermont our home words to live by. Keep Vermont Weird™ is so succinct and people are able to relate to it, find their own meaning in it and make it their own statement.

10/31 Washington Post/review “No summary could do justice to Maguire’s novel, which is hilarious, heart-wrenching and extremely poignant in its ending. Readers familiar with Baum’s books will delight in how Maguire rings the changes upon them. Others might never be able to hear ‘Over the Rainbow’ again without wincing. The greatest fantasy series make one want to read them again. That’s what I intend to do with this one.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_4Xn_Ye1pg http://files.harpercollins.com/WilliamMorrow/10.30_BostonGlobeMagazine.pdf
