The Friends of the Palm Beach County Library System Present:
Writers LIVE! 2012 |
|
by Donna Marie Smith, Systemwide Adult Programming Coordinator |
 Our Writers LIVE! series brings the community together with authors and their books. Our fourth annual event boasts an exciting line-up of best-selling authors who will discuss their latest works, chat with you, and sign books. These talks will be held across the county at different library locations from January through April:
- James Grippando, Lisa Gardner, Kim Harrison, M.J. Rose, and James W. Hall will thrill you with their latest best-selling page-turners.
- Mary Kay Andrews will engage you with her lively tales sprinkled with humor, romance, and all things antique.
- Jodi Picoult will involve you in her gripping fiction.
- Carly Phillips will charm you with her contemporary romances.
- Elizabeth Stuckey-French will delight you with her clever tale of revenge of “atomic” proportions.
- Kim Harrison will intrigue you with her supernatural fantasies.
- Florida author and Writers LIVE! veteran Tim Dorsey will visit two of our locations. What wacky adventure has Serge Storms gotten himself into this time?
- Les Standiford and Joe Matthews will delve into the heartbreaking Adam Walsh case with their nonfiction work “Bringing Adam Home: The Abduction that Changed America.”
- Steve Forman will entertain you with his off-beat mysteries set in Boca Raton, FL.
- Are you a fan of the hit Showtime series “Dexter?” Jeff Lindsay will intrigue you with his latest novel, on which the show is based, during our second annual Wine & Words fundraiser for the Friends of the Library.
This series is made possible through the generous support of the Friends of the Palm Beach County Library System, Inc.
