Oct. 29 is Halloween Read Night!
Don't forget to bring your Halloween-themed read this Wednesday night! Ghosts, vampires, werewolves, short stories, poems, it's all good! It should be an entertaining night of reads at the Workshop.
The only requirement is your entire work must fit into 15 minutes of reading.
For those who aren't into the Halloween thing, no problem. Regular reads will go on as normal in a side room.
Costumes and food items are welcomed! See you there.
