Friends of the County Library System Present Writers Live! Spring 2010

For immediate release: January 22, 2010
Contact: Donna Smith Adult Programming Librarian
                (561) 233-2793 • smithd@pbclibrary.org

The Palm Beach County Library System’s Writers Live! series is an event that brings the community together with authors and their books. The second annual event features an exciting line-up of authors who will discuss their latest works, chat with the audience and do book signings.  These 60-minute talks will be held across the county at different library locations from February through May.  A book signing will follow each author talk.

Writers Live! debuted last April during National Library Week. During the one-day “Murder They Wrote” event at the Hagen Ranch Road Branch in Delray Beach, over 400 people got to meet some of the hottest Florida thriller writers such as Brad Meltzer, Lisa Unger, James O. Born and Ted Bell.  This series is made possible through the generous support of the Friends of the Palm Beach County Library System, Inc.

Preregistration is required. The following talks will be held in February:

Tim Dorsey

Tue, Feb. 9, 6:30 p.m. - Wellington Branch (790-6070)
Wed, Feb. 10, 2 p.m. - Jupiter Branch (744-2301)
