A Christmas Tree for a Christmas Party

A few weeks ago, Rebekah and I explored a new dollar store near our home.

And then we, quite impulsively, bought a small Christmas tree for ten dollars.

We're adding that tree to one of the BryonySeries tables at WriteOn Joliet's annual anthology release party.

Rebekah has spent the past few nights working on that little tree, so it's all ready to go on party night. 


The actual party is from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Joliet Public Library, 3395 Black Road in Joliet. The community is welcome to join us - and here are five reasons why you should (with photos from previous events)

1. Free, fantastic, chef-prepared appetizers and desserts. Except for the cheese and sausage, everything is homemade, including the doughnuts.


2. Free photos with Santa.



3. An opportunity to chat with a really great group of local authors (from a previous anthology release party at The Book Market in Crest Hill. Everyone was so busy last year, we took few photos).


4. One-stop Christmas shop for all the bookworms on your list, children through adult, with one-stop checkout, courtesy of Jan Staley, owner of The Book Market in Crest Hill. (Jan Staley even provided checkout at the Billie Limacher Bicentennial Park in Joliet for WriteOn Joliet's radio play in April. She is as generous as she is kind and friendly).



5. And treasure trove of books with various genres and storylines you haven't (yet) imagined. No photos here. We want you to discover them for yourself.

We hope you can make it. We look forward to celebrating with you!
