Published Writers of Rossmoor (PWR) Authors Offer Their Books for Sale at Rossmoor's Fall Bazaar in Rossmoor on November 3, 2018
By Joanna Kraus and Jon Foyt
The Rossmoor Fall Bazaar will be held this year, for the third year in a row, on Saturday, November 3, in the Oak Room at Gateway from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. PWR authors will be standing by to discuss their creative literary efforts, and their books will be on display for review and purchase at discount prices.
Rossmoor’s 2018 Fall Bazaar offers an excellent way to do holiday shopping, and a signed book by an author with a personal dedication to the recipient would make an ideal gift.
