Calling All Writers

Wed, 10/26/2022 - 13:40

Just in time for the start of NaNoWriMo — that's National Novel Writing Month, celebrated every November — the East Hampton Library has launched a new weekly group for creative writers.

Every Thursday from 3 to 5 p.m., writers can bring their work to present and discuss with fellow writers, including long and short works of fiction and nonfiction, poetry, screenplays, and more. "Participants will be able to share their works in process and collaborate with other writers," the library says on its website.

The all-ages meetup will take place in the library's Bendheim room. The phone number for more information is 631-324-0222, extension 3.
