Hawaii Writers Guild will present its October Writers’ Voices reading from 6-7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 2, at the Thelma Parker Memorial Library in Waimea.
Writers’ Voices is an evening of original readings by guild members. Readers during the October event will include members from around the Big Island: Jim Gibbons from Waimea, Carla Orellana of Hawi, Donna Maltz from North Kohala and Carol McMillan, soon to be from Waimea.
Gibbons will read a piece that introduces a new word into the English lexicon: “dogtuse.” He says, in order to find out what it means, you will have to come to the reading.
Orellana will read a story from her “Tales of a Snake Dancer,” vignettes from her life as a professional belly dancer. Maltz will read an excerpt from her just published book, “Living Like the Future Matters: The Evolution of an Eco-Bohemian Entrepreneur.”
Guest emcee McMillan will read from her memoir-in progress, “Seeds of a Flower Child,” set in the San Francisco Bay area during the years 1967 and 1970. She will read from a chapter about the “People’s Park” in Berkeley, which was the center of protests in 1969.
Hawaii Writers Guild is an independent association of professional writers engaged in the promotion of cultural enrichment. The semi-monthly readings are free and open to the public. The library is located at 67-1209 Mamalahoa Highway.
Pictures and stories of past readings are posted on the guild website at www.hawaiiwritersguild.com/guild-news.html.
