Join us at 2:30 pm for our monthly meeting of the Writers' Alliance of Gainesville. This month's speaker is award-winning author, Lana McAra.

Award-winning author and writing coach Lana McAra will speak at the Millhopper Branch on Sunday, October 13, at 2:30 p.m. The topic is “Your Deepest Darkest Secrets Are the Key to Your Next Bestseller.”

McAra won the Christy Award, the Book Excellence Award, and the Literary Titan Silver Book Award for her historical novel Reaping the Whirlwind, which she wrote under the pen name Rosey Dow.

McAra writes transformational romance stories that explore personal development. She has created a career that combines her love for writing with her dedication to shining light into a dark world. Her forty-four published books show her commitment to elevating consciousness and vibration around the globe. Lana’s journey has led her down a remarkable path from the duality of strict religion to singularity and awareness, with a lot of life lessons along the way.

Her most recent novel, The Englewood Medium: Shaken But Not Stirred, stands as her most personal work to date. She tells the story of a woman with a stalker, a situation she personally experienced in 2014. It shows how to take back your personal power and stand up for yourself.

This program is free and open to the public.

The Writers' Alliance of Gainesville (WAG) promotes encourages and supports aspiring and experienced regional writers. This goal is accomplished via monthly meetings, public readings, small critique groups, a literary journal, and writers' contests and collaborations with schools and civic organizations to foster creative expression through the written word.
