A Weyburn local is touring the prairies with his recently published novel.

Craig Terlson, the author of Fall in One Day, will be making a stop in Weyburn with his new release.

In his fictional town, Garson, is based on Weyburn. One of the important buildings in Garson, as well as in Terlson's own life, is the public library.

"When a library shows up in the novel for me, it's definitely the Weyburn Library because I spent many hours there as a kid," said Terlson. "It's where my love of reading came from, and I think that, from an early age, wanting to write, and so it was a neat opportunity to have the characters come back to this library in Garson, it's sort of a full circle."

Terlson will be at the Weyburn Public Library on Tuesday, July 11 at 7:00 p.m. for a book signing.
