Women Writers II

The author of Whatever it Takes will join us, along with the local artist who illustrated her book’s cover.  Donna is from California, and her book is a mystery  with a romantic twist.

This columnist for the Creswell Chronicle joins us to read from her book, What’s Next, Ms. Elliot: a woman at retirement.  Jo-Brew’s other recent titles will also be available at the event.

Please join us for an afternoon of readings by women writers!  We’ll feature readings by some of the area’s many women writers, followed by a panel Q&A session.  Our last group of women writers answered questions regarding finding an agent, getting published, and marketing your work.  We look forward to seeing you on Sunday the 16th!
