 The December WordFest gathering will be celebrating the holidays in verse and prose.

A number of local writers will be sharing their thoughts, memories, and reflections on this season:

 Cathy Zimmerman and John Knudsen will be reading personal essays.

Charolette Conklin and Elizabeth Schartz will be reading short stories.

Jane Still will share a poem that she wrote for her grandchildren who were afraid of Santa Claus.

Other poets reading that night will be Lillian Bushnell, Peggy Williams, Roger Belton, and Rene Cathcart.

 It promises to be a very full evening, rich with the spirit of the season.
