Carole’s October Book Gigs

Wanto to join a book club? Come and meet Carole at the Bloor-Gladstone Library (1101 Bloor St. W.– Subway: Dufferin) on Wednesday evening, October 26th, from 7-8 p.m. She’ll share her experiences as a writer, and she’ll offer tips and suggestions to help jump-start your book-club experience. What kind of books do you enjoy? Find out more about novels, novellas and short stories and how you might use them for book club reading.

Carole will be speaking on Reading the Novella: A Gardener On The Moon at the North York Central Library (5120 Yonge St. — Subway: North York Centre) on Thursday, October 27th from 7- 8p.m. Find out about this distinctive form of writing which has been practiced by some of our greatest authors. When you’re short on time, novellas offer short, quality reading. Carole will discuss the novella in general and hers in particular. She’ll read from A Gardener On The Moon, co-winner of the 2010 Ken Klonsky Novella Contest, published by Quattro Books. To register, call 416.395.5639.

For something different this Hallowe’en, join Carole and a roster of readers at the Draft Reading Series, at The Merchants of Green Coffee, 2 Matilda St., near Broadview and Queen Sts. Writers are invited to take a chance and to read from new and unpublished work in draft form — or to read old work in a new and inventive way. Hallowe’en’s theme is “The Day of the Dead.” The reading’s in the afternoon, from 1.30 to 4 p.m.
