On Saturday, January 11, 2025, the Warrenton Community Library invites you to a night to remember as part of the Library After Dark series. This isn’t just your ordinary book talk! Author Ferrell Hornsby will be in the spotlight, sharing her fascinating journey of writing stories that captivate hearts and spark imaginations. Starting at 4 p.m., she’ll give a behind-the-scenes look into her research, her writing process, and what fuels her passion for creating characters who live beyond the pages.

And let’s not forget her remarkable journey of perseverance. Ferrell began writing at a tender age, encouraged by her grandmother, and powered through the inevitable first rejection letter at twelve!
