Ed Calkins, Steward of Tara, also known as Santa Claus this time of year, will have copies of his books for sale Thursday night at the Joliet Public Library, Black Road branch.
He is just one of several authors who contributed to "Write Where We Are," the 2022 anthology for Write On Joliet.
WriteOn Joliet will celebrate the release of that anthology from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, December 8, at the library, located at 3395 Black Road in Joliet.
Admission to the anthology release party is free.
The celebration includes complimentary appetizers and desserts, an informal meet and greet with local authors who are members of the group, and the opportunity to purchase copies of the anthology as well as as individual works by individual authors.
Janet Staley, owner of The Book Market in Crest Hill, will handle checkout. Everyone who buys a book, either the anthology or a book from the other tables, will receive a Book Market bookmark that features a ten percent discount on books at Staley's store through January 31, 2023.
The party is for all ages. So if your children and grandchildren have yet to visit Santa this year, bring them out. Photos with Santa are free.
Tomorrow: I'll provide a sneak peek at some of the complimentary food.
Monday: I'll provide a sneak peek of a special "thank you" gift BryonySeries is offering for select purchase of books in the BryonySeries on Thursday night.
Last year, we offered this gift. This year, we have something equally terrific.
Hope to see you there!
