SUMMARY:Book Talk &amp\; Signing with Cynthia Reeves
DESCRIPTION:The Briar Patch in Bangor\, Maine\, invites you to a night o
 f craft talk and storytelling at BookSpace (48 Columbia St.) featuring a
 uthor and adventurer Cynthia Reeves.\n\n\n\nWhere Stories Begin: Shaping
  Family History and Historical Events into Fiction\n\n\n\nWhat happens w
 hen a writer transforms family history into fiction? How do historical e
 vents become the foundation for an imagined world? And what makes a coll
 ection of linked stories feel different from—and sometimes surprisingl
 y similar to—a traditional novel? Join author Cynthia Reeves for an en
 gaging exploration of the ways fiction grows from both personal experien
 ce and historical research. Drawing on her novel in stories Falling Thro
 ugh the New World and her novel The Last Whaler\, Reeves will discuss th
 e creative choices involved in shaping lived experience into narrative\,
  weaving history into fiction\, and deciding whether a project is best s
 erved as a novel-in- stories or a traditional novel.\n\n\n\nThe event wi
 ll be hosted by The Briar Patch Bookstore at BookSpace\, 48 Columbia St\
 , Bangor\, ME\, July 27 at 7:00 PM.\n\n\n\nPart craft talk\, part behind
 -the-scenes look at two very different books\, this presentation will of
 fer insights for writers interested in transforming source material into
  fiction\, as well as readers curious about how stories come to life.
