Young adult author Dawn Metcalf

Fresh off a popular talk on how to get a book published, young adult author Dawn Metcalf will return to Tolland Tuesday, June 7 to present a talk entitled “From ‘Once Upon a Time’ to “Happily Ever After:’ How to Write Your Book from Beginning to End.”
Back by popular demand after her March 22 talk, Metcalf will give the free talk at 6:30 p.m. in Conference Room A of Tolland Town Hall at 21 Tolland Green as part of the Tolland Public Library Foundation’s Eaton-Dimock-King Authors Series.
Teens and adults interested in writing a book will receive valuable advice from Metcalf on keeping the writing flowing and overcoming obstacles such as writer’s block.
Metcalf, who lives in northern Connecticut, is the author of four books: “Luminous,” a young adult paranormal fantasy, and “Indelible,” “Invisible,” and “Insidious,” which make up her trilogy about a fantasy world known as “The Twixt.”
The talk is free and open to the public, but registration is required. To register, call the Tolland Public Library at 860-871-3620 or visit www.tolland.org/library and click on the Online Library Events Calendar.
Since 2010, the author series, funded by the Phoebe Dimock King and Elizabeth C. King Eaton Endowment, has brought writers Caragh O’Brien, Dan Barry, Denis Horgan, Susan Campbell, Cindy Rodriguez, Susan Schoenberger, Jeff Goldberg, Lucy Anne Hurston, Jane Haddam, Ken Davis and P.W. Catanese to town.
