World Storytelling Day is a global celebration of the art of oral storytelling. It is celebrated every year on the March equinox, on (or near) March 20. This week, we are offering two different storytelling-themed programs, one in-person and virtual to channel your inner narrative!

Registration is open and a must to attend either event. Check out these programs!

Format: Zoom Class

What happened to that book you were writing? Set aside. In a drawer. Don’t tell us it’s on a floppy disk!!!

We like to say “There’s always something happening at Town Square” - and now that can include your book. Yes, you can make that book happen. You just need a little know-how.

Joy will share three different pathways you might consider traveling to get your work out to the world. She will also provide some basic information about marketing your work, and share important tools every author should use to help grow a reading audience.
