Tuesday Talks


​Tuesday Talks happen on the first Tuesday of the month, 11am -12 noon, and subtitled “Books in my Life.” We ask our speakers to reflect upon the books that have nurtured and guided them. We convene 10 Tuesday Talks per year (none in January nor during Writers Week in March). Speakers have been known to speak of one book, or a half dozen or twenty! Tuesday Talks are entertaining, illuminating and inspiring.
