November is National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo). To celebrate the month, the Winona Public Library is hosting local area authors and creative writing workshops during the NaNoWriMo Creative Writing and Local Author Fair on Saturday, November 12th from 10 AM-12 PM at the Winona Public Library.

Authors from all around the Winona Area and beyond will be at the fair and write anything from children’s books to poetry. Stop by their booths, visit with them, and maybe pick up a copy of their book(s). Authors include: Sarah Chapman, Emilio DeGrazia, Terri Karsten, Amanda Lynn, Ken Mogren, Lisa David Olson, Kathryn Sullivan, Robert B. Taunt, and Jan Wellik.
