If you've always wanted to meet an author and ask them where their ideas come from, this is the event for you. Like a good old fashioned bed time story with a twist please join us for an engaging discussion, mingle with friends, and enjoy a herbal tea or something stronger. What a great way to end a wonderful day and an evening meal. Stella will have copies available of her book for sale. And she will also have a book club guide available about her novel.

Have you ever wondered where an author gets his or her inspiration? Where do their wild ideas, stories and characters come from?
