Marissa Morales, a passionate book lover from the Bronx, shared her love for literature with fellow bibliophiles at the Parkchester Library on Tuesday. As part of World Book Day celebrations, Morales hosted a writing workshop to help aspiring writers find their voice and tell their stories.
Morales, who wrote her first book in first grade and now hosts a monthly book club at the library, emphasized the importance of books as a means of exploring different perspectives and cultures. She believes that everyone has a unique voice that deserves to be heard through storytelling.
The writing workshop was well-attended, with participants eager to learn from Morales’ expertise. Morales encouraged attendees to immerse themselves in the diverse collection of books and programs available at their local libraries. By sharing her passion for books, Morales hopes to inspire others to discover the joy of reading and writing.
