Short Stories and Fantasy Fiction
Whistler Public Library Program Coordinator Jeanette Bruce is in the virtual house to discuss two favourite reading genres: short fiction and fantasy. Short stories keep us engaged and fantasy takes us away from the here and now. Sign me up! My mom calls with an update on the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist and I learn about a brand new pasta shape from a podcast for serious cooks.
