Ghost Stories in the Dark!
Adults: Gather together on Thursday October 29th at 6:30 PM, if you have the nerve. Bring your scariest stories, poems, or passages to tell. We know you have those old campfire stories and urban legends in your old dusty attic. Bring a flashlight and set up some candles so you really set the mood. Get ready to tingle the spines of those who dare enter the Library Zoom Room. No talent or commitment necessary. Fun and free. For a zoom link: laura@fernridgelibrary.org or 541-935-7512.

NaNoWriMo Virtual Write-in
Just what is NaNoWriMo? According to their website, “NaNoWriMo is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides tools, structure, community, and encouragement to help people find their voices, achieve creative goals, and build new worlds — on and off the page”. And November is National Novel Writing Month, when writers all over the world each work on writing an entire novel, or part of one, by setting aside time to work on their craft. Sometimes they work at a “write-in” to give and get support from other writers. The Fern Ridge Library has created a virtual space where writers can gather. Join Meli, library staff member and accomplished writer, as she hosts a virtual write-in every Monday in November, 2 until 4 PM on Zoom.
Meli will help you get started with NaNoWriMo, and you will meet up with other new and seasoned writers on Zoom. For more information and to request the Zoom link, email meli@fernridgelibrary.org, or call 541-935-7512. Free!
