Wacky Writers Workshop for 5th thru 9th graders

The first session of our writing workshop was last night and a fun time was had by all. We wrote stories based on the prompts Sunflower Island or Kooky Grandma’s Convention and we wrote One sentence at a time stories where everyone writes a sentence and then passes it to the person next to them who writes and sentences and so on. They were quite brilliant.

If you missed last night and wish that you hadn’t, come and join us next week as we continue our silly adventure with stories and words. Weeks three and four we plan to polish our favorite goofy stories to put into books that will be cataloged into our library’s collection. We will share our wackiness with everyone in Jefferson County. Cool!!

So don’t forget…
Thursdays from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m.
Sept. 4th, 11th & 18th

See you there!!

Dungeons and Dragons

Ahh… can you hear it?
It’s the sound of hacking and slashing.
The sound of treasure hunting.
The sound of orc bashing.
It’s the sound of happiness.

Sept 6, 2008 — that’s a Saturday
From 12 to 4
in the library auditorium

The new plan is to meet once a month for a longer span of time.

A new group has formed that we are lovingly calling The Girl Group however a couple of young men have been known to sneak in. Boy, Girl, Elf or Dwarf… you are welcome to come and play D&D with us. Show up with your imagination. Bring your dice if you have ‘em.

Letters about Literature

HEY LOVERS OF BOOKS!!!
There is a contest that you really should enter.

It is called Letters about Literature — thus the title of this post — and basically you write a letter to your favorite author telling him or her why he or she is so darn cool.

Since this is a major summary of the contest I suggest that you go to the official website where there is more information, guidelines and entry forms, etc… etc…
