Goodbye, Coach Stewart, and thank you5/22/2012 7:53:00 AMA bunch of folks went on Twitter to memorialize Bill Stewart Monday.

And I was never enraptured by teen novels, even when I was a teen. So no, I haven’t read beyond about the first 30 or 40 pages.But the subject matter wasn’t as significant to me as the author: Derrick Moore.Moore co-wrote “All That” (Saddleback Educational Publishing) with his wife, author Stephanie Perry Moore. She’s written plenty, including this book’s flip-side novel “Always Upbeat,” which follows a parallel storyline about the football player’s cheerleader girlfriend.I met Derrick in 1991, when he ...
