Join us this September to write and learn together! We will meet on September 13, 2025, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm on the 2nd floor of the Beaverton Library, 12375 SW 5th Street, Beaverton, OR 97005. The first 45 minutes will be for free writing and working with prompts, or seeking editing help on your piece for any student from middle through high school. Then, Sara will discuss the craft of picture books.
Sara says: “I am a former professional librarian, a freelance writer, frequent visitor to classrooms, well-received book-talker. and a popular workshop leader at the Oregon Writing Festival. I’ve published 40 feature articles and creative pieces in regional (e.g., Oregon Humanities) and national publications (e.g., American Libraries, School Library Journal). My last name is pronounced BEARman.
Until January 2024, when I was not writing children’s stories, I was writing grant proposals for clients who are doing wonderful things in our world. I live in Portland, Oregon, with my special sweetie, F.X.” https://www.saratbehrman.com
