Happy New Year

Well, 2008 has begun! Last year ended with a flourish of crazy, fun and long shopping days. Today is our first day back at work since we closed for a week of R and R. And we're excited to be back.

We are already planning our Flying Pig year. Some highlights include:
the beginning of both an adult and teen book group starting up in February- call the store to find out what we'll be reading; the resumption of writing classes in the Loft, so far we've got the amazingly talented young adult author, Chris Tebbetts, on board in April and May to teach writing the Young Adult novel-- a class suitable for teens and adults; look for a poetry writing workshop in April and picture book writing sometime in the Spring.

Laura Numeroff, author of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and many more, is scheduled to come for a visit on March 9th. Michael Buckley, author of the Sister's Grimm, Fairy Tale Detective series (great for ages 9 and up) is slated to join us during the first of May.

We are working hard to bring even more authors to the store then we had last year, so keep checking the website or come by the store for more details.

Happy New Year!
