Join horror expert and RAILS Board member Becky Spratford, author of The Readers' Advisory Guide to Horror, 3rd Edition [ALA Editions, August 2021] as she helps get you ready for the Halloween rush. In this program, Becky will moderate a panel of authors who are members of the Chicagoland Chapter of the Horror Writers Association [http://www.hwachicago.org]. Panelists will include Cynthia Pelayo, author of "Children of Chicago" and New York Times Bestselling author Daniel Kraus. This engaging panel will talk about why they love and create Horror, share their favorite titles, and help you in your work with readers as you match them with the perfect scary read. Ideas for displays, free programming, a chance to ask Becky or the authors your spookiest questions, and more will be included in this 2-hour CE event.
All registrants will also be entered into a drawing to win a free copy of Becky's brand-new book courtesy of ALA Editions. Don't wait until the hordes of readers begin shambling into your library when the calendar flips over to October; prepare yourself now and have fun along the way.
