WriterFest
In honor of National Library Week, we are bringing
together local authors and aspiring writers. This is an opportunity for
published authors in many genres to provide valuable information about
writing, finding agents, finding the right publisher, self-publishing and
book promotion to those who aspire to be published. Authors will also sign
and sell their books. WriterFest is organized and hosted by Buffalo Grove
author Michelle True. Refreshments will be served and there will
be a free raffle for gifts. This event is FREE but space is limited. Registration
begins February 15, 2007 by calling the library at (847) 459-4100 or at
the library's online calendar: http://itpld-res.itpld.lib.il.us/evanced/lib/eventcalendar.asp
