Join multi-published author Christine Trent as she describes her method for filtering through book concepts before taking the grand journey from an idea to a completed novel ready for publication.

The Grim Readers: Book Club
The Grim Readers is a book club that meets on the first Tuesday of every month for an hour to discuss a horror book. This month's pick is "The Ruins" by Scott Smith.
Two young couples decide to take a trip to Mexico. The group enjoyed the beach, hotel, and making friends with fellow tourists when the brother of one of the couples goes missing. The group ultimately decides to go searching for the missing brother. Trekking through the Mexican jungle, the group stumbles upon a village which is only the beginning of the creeping horror; they endure throughout the story. What started as an exciting day-trip gradually spirals into a terrifying nightmare when they find the remains of an ancient ruins site… and the disturbing presence that lurks there.

A Dutch Settler in Colonial Southern Maryland
Join us for an illustrated presentation given by Dr. James Gibb, describing the land and lifestyle of Bernard Johnson, a Dutch settler in colonial southern Maryland in the late 1600's.
Bernard Johnson was a Dutch cooper, or barrel-maker, who emigrated to Maryland in the 1660's. In 1671, Johnson became naturalized so that he might legally own land. He acquired two tracts of land in Aquasco, Maryland, located in Prince Georges County, that he named Dove's Perch (200 acres, 1679) and Dove's Nest (150 acres, 1686). Johnson built his plantation upon those tracts of land and eventually died there around 1700. His sons-in-law sold the tracts in 1711.
Archaeological survey led to the discovery of Johnson's plantation house which was subsequently excavated in its entirety. This presentation describes the remains of the catastrophically burned dwelling, its Dutch-inspired hearth and chimney, and the artifacts and bones from which we have learned about the Johnsons' lifestyle, including their diet.
