The author of two award-winning novels, Grant Overstake began his notable journalism career at age 18 as a part-time reporter for The Wichita Eagle. He went on to graduate from the University of Kansas journalism school where he won the William Randolph Hearst Award, considered the Pulitzer Prize for college journalists. At age 24, he joined The Miami Herald, a paper that shaped many best-selling authors. Grant returned to the Sunflower State to edit weekly papers, earning numerous Kansas Press Association Awards, and two Golden Wheat Awards from the Kansas Farm Bureau. Grant's first novel, Maggie Vaults Over the Moon (2012) earned rave reviews from Kirkus Reviews and listed as a "Cool Back to School Novel" by Publishers Weekly. The audiobook was performed by Audie Award-winner Tavia Gilbert. Maggie recently was named one of the best track and field novels of all time by Citius Mag. The story was reissued in May 2021 by Grain Valley Publishing as a new title, with a new foreword by Olympic Champion Katerina Stefanidi, and chapter questions for mid-grade students written by Mental Performance Consultant, English teacher and coach, Dr. Melissa White. The Real Education of TJ Crowley (Grain Valley Publishing 2018) was picked to be a Candid Conversations Book Club selection by the Wichita Public Library. The novel won "Best Book" and "Best Design" awards for 2019 by the Kansas Authors Association. It was the first time that a novel won both top awards. Grant's publishing firm, Grain Valley Publishing Company produces award-winning books with teams of freelance editors and designers from around the nation.
