“Open Mic Night” is an opportunity for anyone to come out and share their talents whether it be reading poetry, playing music or singing. “Open Mic Night” in Naples continues to evolved and has attracted many in middle and high school to showcase their talents, though it is not solely for the younger crowd.

Weston is not only an award-winning writer, but also a talented and motivating speaker. She has been scheduled as a guest speaker at many schools and events throughout Florida.

Weston’s next book, Out of the Shadows: Book II of the Elysian Chronicles, will be available in the next few months. A Prophecy Forgotten (ISBN-10: I-59507-I69-5; ISBN-13: 978-159507-169-9) is available now. Weston is also available for book signings or speaking engagements. M.B. Weston can be reached at 239-821-3769, by email at mbweston@elysianchronicles.com, or online by visiting www.elysianchronicles.com.
