Wild Writers Literary Festival Comes to Waterloo Nov. 6–8

Mark your calendars—Waterloo's Wild Writers Literary Festival is turning 15 this year, and it's bringing three days of word-craft and storytelling magic to town. **What's Happening** From **November 6 to 8**, writers and word-lovers of all levels can dive into writing workshops, sit in on panel discussions with published authors, and enjoy a literary brunch. Whether you're working on your first short story or polishing a novel, there's something for everyone. Can't wait until November? There's a **free pre-festival event on October 29** to kick things off and get you excited for what's coming. **Why You'll Love It** The festival celebrates the craft of writing and brings our community together around stories—the kind that make you think, laugh, or see the world a little differently. It's a chance to learn from people who've made writing their life's work and to connect with fellow storytellers right here in Waterloo. Visit the festival website for the full schedule and registration details. --- *Uncle Sam says: There's a story inside every one of us—Wild Writers gives you the tools and the company to tell it.*
