Staff Picks The Echo Killing by Christi Daugherty

 

The Echo Killing by Christi Daugherty

Looking for a series written with a Georgia city as a setting? 

Check out the Harper McClain series by Christi Daugherty! 

Set in Savannah, Georgia, the protagonist Harper McClain is a journalist for a small Savannah newspaper. The first in the series, The Echo Killing begins with a murder that bears a striking resemblance to McClain's mother's murder years earlier. Those familiar with Savannah will recognize some of the settings as well as the distinct feel of the town, and the increasing suspense will keep readers turning pages. 

Songwriting Workshop at Sharon Forks Library on August 9th and 23rd

Have you ever wanted to write a song?  

Aspiring songwriters will get advice on creating original music from award-winning local songwriter Bob Lusher in a two-part Songwriting Workshop that will be held on August 9 and 23 at the Sharon Forks Library. Both Tuesday night sessions begin at 7:00 p.m. 

Participants will learn songwriting methods including song structure, chords, and lyrics as well as how to arrange and record music using Audacity and Band-in-a-Box. At the conclusion of the workshop, the songwriters will have the opportunity to perform their music for the group.  

Forsyth County Public Library is excited to offer this unique program for our adult and high school age patrons.
