The
WordWeavers and Bartlesville Public Library are happy to announce that Sonia Gensler and Bill Wetterman will be our speakers at the first annual "Into
the Book" festival. We are honored to have such talent come to our event.
If you
are a local author (Pawhuska, Dewey, Nowata, etc) and would like to have a book signing table at our event,
please contact us at Bville_WordWeavers@yahoo.com before August 3rd. We have a
limited number of spots. Any spots leftover after August 3rd will be given to
interested authors from around the area. We want this to spotlight local
authors first, so please let us know ASAP.
You
will be hearing a lot more about this, we have big publicity ideas and would
like to thank Frank's Signs for their generous offer to donate all things sign
related for the event. Go check them out on Washington Blvd. They're just
before you reach Dewey across for the camper dealership. Look for the lions.
Our
authors are constantly churning out great material, Rita Durrett has released
two new books: Shades of Gray
an anthology of short stories and a novella called Night of the Raven. And
Linda Derek has released her children's picture books: Chip's Sharing Day and One Large Peanut Butter Sandwich To Go.
Way to
go, ladies!!
The
rest of the time was spent critiquing works for our upcoming seasons anthology.
You're not going to want to miss this anthology, one minute you'll be snort
laughing, the next you'll be wiping away tears. We have so many talented
writers in our group.
If you
are a paid member of WordWeavers it's not too late to be involved in the
anthology. E-mail me at Bville_WordWeavers@yahoo.com for the details. The next
short story deadline is August 13th.
Our
next meeting will be August 21st at 6:30 pm at the Bartlesville Public Library,
meeting room to be announced. This is an open meeting and we hope to see you
there. If you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at
Bville_WordWeavers@yahoo.com.
Happy
Writing,
Jennifer
