Each session, be prepared to come ready to discuss one of Laufey’s picks––typically fiction with a whimsical bent.

Our first book will be "Interpreter of Maladies" by Jhumpa Lahirim, which we will discuss on August 5. The book is available at this link on Amazon, but we appreciate if you obtain it through your local book store or borrow it from your local library.

If you enroll in this class less than 24 hours before it begins, please either send us a message or email us at programs@sandiegowriters.org to request your link.
