Write On! Literacy Celebration

The end of summer reading will be here before you know it. Between Saturday, July 28 and Saturday, August 4 there will be a weeklong, system-wide series of fun events including writing workshops and author talks geared towards older young adults and adults.

At the Mt. Pleasant Regional Library we will host two of those programs, a Volunteer Fair and a Fiction Writing Workshop with Grady Hendrix.

The Volunteer Fair is on Thursday, August 2 from 2 to 4 p.m. where you can come explore volunteer opportunities with local nonprofits.

The Fiction Writing Workshop with Grady Hendrix is on Friday, August 3 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. Author Grady Hendrix will facilitate a fiction writing workshop open to anyone 16 or older. Pre-registration is required. Please email mtpreference@ccpl.org or call 843-849-6161 to register.

Grady's book Paperbacks from Hell won the Stoker Award in 2017 for Distinguished Achievement in Non-Fiction.

Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar - The Map of Salt and Stars - Book Review: Among the many things the violence of war obliterates, perhaps the most malicious is history. Now in its seventh year, the civil war that has turned Syria into the site of one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises has also corseted one of the oldest societies on earth into a kind of perpetual infancy.
