Berlin-Peck Memorial Library: Special Event Spotlight

Local Author Spotlight

You're Invited!

Saturday, November 15

10:30 am to 12:30 pm

Readers and writers!

You’re invited to meet six local authors who write in a variety of genres. Hear the authors speak about their experiences, books, and the writing process. We’ll finish with a Q&A session and opportunities for you to meet and speak to the authors individually who will have their books available for sale and signing. This is a great opportunity to find a new-to-you book, purchase a gift in time for the holidays, or for aspiring writers to get some tips!

Please register so we have an accurate headcount.
