Coming Up: January 2026 Events & Meetings

We accomplished a lot in December, including meeting up for our holiday party and book exchange at The Heist Bar & Food Trucks, our chapter meeting with guest presenter Richard Leis sharing craft tips and “Horror Poetry for Prose Writers,” and our upcoming discussion of Fever House by Keith Rosson.

The year’s almost over, but we already have a great schedule of events in January 2026. Happy New Year!
