A Raleigh novelist and newspaper columnist will speak twice in Goldsboro Tuesday.
G.D. Gearino will deliver the annual Henry Belk Lecture at the Goldsboro Rotary Club's meeting. Then, he will be the featured speaker at the Friends of the Library's annual meeting.
A columnist for the News & Observer since 1993, Gearino is also a novelist. His first book, "What the Deaf-Mute Heard," was published in 1996 and was later produced as a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie.
He has also published two other novels, "Counting Coup" and "Blue Hole," and has just completed his fourth book, "The Wrong Guy."
The public is welcome to attend the Friends of the Library's meeting, which will begin at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the Gertrude Weil Auditorium. The program is free, and refreshments will be served. The library is located at 1001 E. Ash St.
