Author Paul Martin will speak about writing his book “The Adventures of Chuka,” from 2-3 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 9, from at the Williamsburg Library, 515 Scotland Street, Williamsburg. The talk is co-sponsored by Chesapeake Bay Writers.
Martin will address aspects of writing to include concepts, characters, plot development, and conclusions, as well as the publishing of a book, said a press release.
A retired army intelligence officer, Martin was stationed twice in southern Arizona, where his book takes place. He has written and contributed to various nonfiction publications on South Africa, Mexico, El Salvador, and the United Nations. He is married to Karen Martin, and his “Chuka stories” began as tales that he told to his five children, and eventually his 11 grandchildren.
