About the event
The Thrilll of the Chill - Turning Fear as a Catalyst for Creativity
Fear is no mind-killer. In fact, it may be the very thing that can drive you to the next level - at work, creatively, or in personal relationships. Join our panel of educators, librarians, and scientists as they discuss the way they actively master and weaponize fear in their creative and professional lives. This panel will talk about the nature of both harnessing and conquering fear as it is considered in writing, scientific research, and education and recommend titles for all ages.
Fellow panelists include librarian/book reviewer Becky Siegel Spratford and horror author Cynthia Pelayo
