SUMMARY:8th Annual Writers Read Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Some say perspective changes everything. The 16 writers from th
 roughout the Northwest\, Canada and Texas selected to read their pieces on
  the theme\, “From a Distance\,” for the Cannon Beach Library’s Writ
 ers Read Celebration\, twisted their perceptions to encompass time\, space
  and technology. They will read their poems\, short stories\, essays and f
 lash fiction at the Celebration beginning at 7:00pm Friday\, March 6th in 
 the library. Admission is free. People can attend in person at the library
 \, or livestream the event on Facebook.\nFrom a conversation with the wind
  to backwards time travel in Galway\, Ireland\, the pieces offered a varie
 ty of views from a distance. A boy looks at the planets while a Martian co
 nsiders Earth. Friends try to plan a coastal trip via text messages. Life 
 changes direction for a young man working in a mint field. A woman hopes t
 o recapture her great-grandmother’s recipe for beans and pork.\nThis is 
 the eighth year of the library’s Writers Read Celebration. Writers were 
 asked to submit up to three entries – limited to 600 words per entry –
  on a chosen theme. This year’s theme was “From a Distance.” The lib
 rary received a record-breaking 122 entries. They were reviewed in a blind
  selection process by a panel of volunteers from the library’s NW Author
 s Series Committee.\nWriters Reading Are:\nAronne Barnes\, Short Story: Ch
