THE WEST VALLEY WORDSMITHS PRESENT
MEET THE AUTHOR.
AT THE AVONDALE LIBRARY ON SEPTEMBER THE 24TH AT 2-5 P.M
The West Valley Writers Workshop, founded by Kris and Laura Neely, has been a forum for local west-side writers for several years. Monthly meetings where aspiring writers and ink-slingers meet to instruct, learn, commiserate, and support. The one place where writers can take their scribblings and receive honest face-to-face feedback, a meeting where you don’t always get to hear what it was, you hoped you might! Writer’s therapy it isn’t however, honesty being the best policy when it comes to the written word, the literary nit-picking performed by the group ranges from minor medical surgery to major textual amputation.
Often the better for the intervention the group has spawned some exceptionally good writers and birthed countless works of memorable prose and even some outstanding novels. To date the West Valley Writers Workshop can count over twenty of its members as published authors.
The West Valley Wordsmiths is one such group; a band of ink-stained veterans who’ve managed to climb insurmountable paper peeks, found passage through the forest of pitfalls, and fought and defeated sharpened criticism. Brave indomitable souls who’ve achieved what it was they set out to do; to be published and to have found an audience.
On the 24th of September at the Avondale Library several graduates of the Neely Gladiator School will present their works. Wordsmiths one and all, they will be proud to discuss not only their recently published books but also to share some insider information on the trials and tribulations of getting book from mind, to pen, to paper, to press, and the secrets they’ve learned on the way. Each writer will deliver an insight into their own writing styles, present their books, discuss inspiration, offer a reading and answer any questions that may be posed.
If you, like us are, struggling to have you voice heard, or just simply wish to meet with likeminded individuals and share you work, then we would love to see you at the WEST VALLEY WORDSMITHS BOOK PRESENTATION EVENT.
