Meet the Author

Authors come to the library to discuss their books.

We invite authors to tell us about their writing careers and books they've written. Afterward, there is a question and answer session followed by refreshments. Don't forget, you can buy a book or bring one of your own for the author to sign. There is no charge for admission.

PAST AUTHORS

Lou Rodenberger did a book review for the Cross Plains Public Library on February 12, 1998. It was so much fun, she inspired us to start a whole new series called "Meet The Author".
