Hey everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful long weekend.
Thanks so much for your interest in receiving updates on writing-related programming at the Pickering Public Library. I promise not to invade your inboxes too often.
For those interested in the next Writing Project Series event, register here to learn all about the wonderful world of poetry! Again, no worries about the waitlist, I can still let some of you in if you aren’t already signed up. I’ll see you April 16th at 7PM!

If you want to come to the next Creative Writing Group meeting, drop by the Central Library’s auditorium on April 23rd, 2PM. There’s no registration for this event, nor is there any pressure to stay for the entire hour and a half. If you’d like, bring something to read and be workshopped by the group, but there’s no guarantee we’ll be able to get through everyone (though I will try my best).
April is National Poetry Month! Check out the display at the George Ashe Library for poetry recommendations to gear up for May’s commencement of Poetry in the Park.

And though not necessarily writing-related, I’m running a program on eBooks and eAudiobooks on April 10th at 7PM if you’re interested in expanding your reading habits. Check it out here.
Also, Richard Szpin, an avid local writer who frequents these programs, has generously offered us a space on his personal website to post updates regarding all the library’s writing and publishing initiatives, so if you’re looking for a centralized location for info, check out his site here or click the spiffy widget below (I think I linked it correctly). Thanks again, Richard!
That’s all from me for now. I’ll see you around! If you have any questions, always feel free to ask.
