📚 Meet Local Authors: Readings, Q&A & Open Mic Night 🎤
Details
📖 The evening starts with readings by four talented writers at different stages of the publishing process. Following will be a moderated Q&A with the authors. The second half of the evening we invite people to read from their own creative writing. To finish the evening, there will be time to speak with the authors and purchase signed copies of their book(s).
