     Literary Guilds

      T.I.L.
      Topeka Branch Library
      4th Friday of each month
      4:00 p.m.

      Literary guilds are not your average book club.  We focus as much on creative writing as we do reading.  We share our thoughts on books we're reading and share our writing (sometimes for gentle criticism).

      So...If you're a reader or a writer, check out one of our literary guilds!
