TED Talk Lunch Series: "12 truths I learned from life and writing" by Anne Lamott

WPL's final TED Talk Lunch Series event of the year will be on Thursday, December 11 at noon. On the brink of turning 61, author Anne Lamott decided to write down everything she knew for sure. In this 2017 talk, she shares the list with us, diving into the nuances of being a human who lives in a confusing, beautiful, emotional world. With her characteristic life-affirming wisdom and humor, she shares her thoughts on family, writing, the meaning of God, death and more. Pack a lunch, invite a friend, and join the discussion! We'll be giving away a copy of Lamott's 1994 book "Bird by Bird" and 2018's "Almost Everything."

What they are: TED Talks are short, carefully prepared, idea-focused talks that foster learning, inspiration, and wonder.

Why we like 'em: no matter the topic covered, these talks provoke conversation and inspire listeners to continue thinking and learning far after the presenter has finished

How to join: bring your lunch to the library and join in as we watch a highly rated TED Talk and continue the conversation amongst ourselves

What else should I know? Coffee and dessert are provided
