Local teen author Chrisa Thomas will present a writing workshop for teens and older children focusing on the pieces needed to write a story. At the end of the workshop you will have created your own character, plot, and setting and be ready to write your own novel. Chrisa will also talk about her new book, Checkmate, or How Not To Fulfill Your Destiny. Copies will be available for purchase and signing. This is a great way to prepare for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) coming up!
