Friends of Montclair Library

As part of the adult summer reading program, 3 local writers will be at the Montclair Library Tuesday, August 19th from 6:00-7:30pm for a panel discussion exploring the process of writing and publishing and the various publishing options beyond mainstream publishing.

The writers will each read briefly from their work, then talk about their experiences with self-publishing and publishing with alternative and mainstream presses in print and electronic formats. There will be plenty of time for questions!

Panel members:

• Jill Vialet, co-founder of MOCHA (The Museum of Children’s Arts) and the author of a children’s book called Recess Rules
• Bruce Fessenden, author of a collection of prose poems
• Laurie Doyle, who teaches writing at UC Berkeley and writes fiction, poetry and essays.
