Whether you plan to write a novel this month, or just want fresh inspiration, come to our Kick-Off Party to meet other local authors. At this literary mixer, we encourage you to bring a favorite book (hardcover, paperback, or kindle), then grab a coffee or tea (free!) and mix and mingle. Also enjoy trivia and literary crafts.

At the end of NeNoNewYear, participants can Submit a copy of their work to the library to win the “Staff favorite” award, which will result in your book being published and placed in the library’s collection. You can also enter to win “Longest Novel” and “Best First Page.”
