Eight writers who are part of the Diablo Writers' Workshop will be reading from short works of fiction, nonfiction and more during "Flash Night" at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 23. This free event will be held in-person at Orinda Books with a limited-size audience and will also be fully accessible on Zoom.
Co-founded by Janine deBoisblanc and Andrea Firth in 2017, Diablo Writers' Workshop (diablowriters.org) brings adult writers of all ages and experience together in small classes to inspire and guide them to discover and tell their stories. "The cool thing about Flash Night is that you can attend from anywhere," said Firth. "We're excited to host this reading of eight writers from The Diablo Writers' Workshop community."
Another exciting event offered by Orinda Books will feature Anna I. Corwin, Ph.D., author of "Embracing Age: How Catholic Nuns Became Models of Aging Well," in conversation with Brother Charles Hilken, F.S.C., at 6 p.m. Oct. 25 via Zoom. Corwin's book delves into the everyday lives of American Catholic nuns who experience longevity and remarkable health and well-being at the end of life.
And on Oct. 25 at 5 p.m., New York Times-bestselling author of "Matrix" as well as "Fates & Furies, Florida," Laura Groff, will be joined in conversation with Gail Vinett, Lead Content Manager at Ingram Content Group. Groff will discuss her latest novel - "a mesmerizing portrait of consuming passion, aberrant faith, and a woman that history moves both through and around."
