Join us for another "Dinner with the Author." Larry and Colleen will provide a 4 course meal featuring spring ingredients. Wow! A night to tickle your brain AND your tongue! Please arrive at 6:30pm, dinner will be served promptly at 7:00pm. About Connie: Connie Wanek was born in 1952 in Madison, Wisconsin. She is the second of six children. Her family moved to a small farm outside Green Bay when she was very young, and they relocated to Las Cruces, New Mexico when she was twelve. In 1990 she moved with her husband, Phil, and her daughter, Hannah, and son, Casey, to Phil's home town, Duluth, Minnesota, where she now lives. As a child in the country outside Green Bay, she attended a one-room school, where a single teacher taught all eight grades (no kindergarten) to seventeen students. Connie and her sisters read a great deal, and drew and wrote poems and stories. Later, in high school and college, Connie retained her interest in the arts, and also she participated in sports, especially tennis, which she played seriously for many years, along with her father and brother. Poetry was a constant, whatever her circumstances and enterprises. While raising two children, she worked in a family solar heating business, and later she learned the skills necessary to restore old houses. Also, she worked for years at the Duluth Public Library, from which she retired in 2007. Her first book, Bonfire, won the New Rivers Press new voices award and was published in 1997. Her second, Hartley Field, appeared in 2002 from Holy Cow! Press. On Speaking Terms, her third book, was released on January 15, 2010, by Copper Canyon Press. Her poems have appeared in Poetry, The Atlantic Monthly, The Virginia Quarterly Review, Poetry East, Water-Stone, and many other publications over the years. In 2006, then Poet Laureate Ted Kooser named her a Witter Bynner Fellow of the Library of Congress. She also served as a co-editor with Joyce Sutphen and Thom Tammaro on the comprehensive anthology, To Sing Along the Way: Minnesota Women Poets from Pre-Territorial Days to the Present, which appeared in 2007 from New Rivers Press, and which has won several awards. | ||

It is upon us once again! Our semi-annual evening of book reviews, guest speakers, and delicious food will be held Friday, April 30th. We will begin handing out door prizes and raffle tickets at 5:30pm, and the festivities will wrap up around 8:00pm. We will be joined this year by Elissa Elliott, author of Eve: A Novel. Elissa's book is being compared to Anita Diamant's The Red Tent. Chris will present 15 books in 15 minutes in what is being described as book/reader speed dating session. Our newest staff member, and self-proclaimed childrens book lover, Tove Wiggs, will present three of her favorite children's books you may not know about. And if this wasn't enough....The Blue Heron will provide a choice of Lasagna or Vegetable al Forno (with a salad) for just $9.89. Their usual menu will also be available. Feel free to bring a bottle of wine to enjoy. The evening is free (unless you eat), and open to all customers. Chris' session of book recommendations is perfect for book clubs looking for new titles, so bring your book club members down, grab a table, and have a great time! Door prizes will be given to the first 25 attendees through the door AFTER 5:30pm, and everyone will get a raffle ticket for great book and gift giveaways. A grand prize of 10 hand-picked books will be given away at the end of the evening. You must be present to win raffle prizes. | ||
