Welcome to World Book Night

We need book-loving volunteers to fan out across America on April 23, 2012! Just take 20 free copies of a book to a location in your community, and you just might change someone's life. Please sign up by Feb. 1.

The goal is to give books to new readers, to encourage reading, to share your passion for a great book. The entire publishing, bookstore, library, author, printing, and paper community is behind this effort with donated services and time.

The first World Book Night was held in the UK last year, and it was such a big success that it's spreading around the world! Please volunteer to be a book giver in the U.S.

Sign up now to be a book giver.

THE WRITER WITHIN: Accessing Creativity in a Hectic World

Friday, January 27th at 7:00 o'clock pm

Where do ideas come from, and how does a writer enter the state of flow that is conducive to producing great work? How do you switch between the left and right brain work of creativity and editing? What blocks you and how do you get past obstacles in sticking to a writing schedule? These and other questions about the writing life will be discussed by four authors and teachers of the craft. There will be a focus on how freely children write and how we can return to that liberated state ourselves.

Please join our panelists for a lively, meaningful discussion, refreshments, and beautiful books to browse and discover.
