Saturday's "Celebration of the WRitten Word" sponsored by the Hammond Regional ARt Center in downtown Hammond, was a smashing success. Regional authors, experts in their fields, shared their knowledge from the writing of cookbooks,mysteries, true crime, children's literature, biographies, publishing, etc. If you missed it this year, put it on your calendar for March, 2016.For writers as well as readers this conference is worth attending. Lots of knowledge. Lots of fun.
