Coming Up: November 2025 Events & Meetings

October was outstanding.

At our chapter meeting in October, Rebecca M. Zornow talked to us about creating our own author business plans, and she also shared some very cool facts about ravens. HWA Oregon members can watch the recorded talk soon.

Zornow is an author and book coach; check out her links:

Our Halloween Party at BOLD Coffee & Books on Friday, October 24 was a great success with a packed house, readings, open mic, and raffles. You can read more about our readers here.

We held a Horror Authors Book Party at Beaverton City Library on Saturday, October 25 that was well attended as well. More about all the readers can be found here.
