Today, BBF posted their full schedule for their 2012 Bookend Events (including ours) that lead up to the fest as well as the main event on Sunday, Sept. 23.
Thursday, Sept 20 at 7pm during the Bookend schedule, DEBUT LIT will be showcasing some fabulous new writers with our friends from Pacific Standard, a microbrew pub in the festival vicinity, and PitchKnives & Butter Forks bloggers Jason Leahey and Shannon Dunlap.
The event will be on the theme “New On Tap,” since, you know, it’s all about new writers and we’re in a brewpub. Get it? New on tap? Ah well, we try.
To entertain you, we’ll have a mix of poets, fiction writers and a memoirist who will each read a piece of original work on theme. Plus introductions, remarks and other interesting tidbits from your hosts Rebekah Anderson of DEBUT LIT and the Leahey-Dunlap duo from PK&BF.
“New On Tap” will feature:
Austin LaGrone, author of the poetry collection Oyster Perpetual
Laren McClung, author of the poetry collection Between Here and Monkey Mountain
Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan, author of the memoir A Tiger in the Kitchen
Greg Gerke, author of the story collection There’s Something Wrong with Sven
Hugh Sheehy, author of the story collection The Invisibles, which is this year’s winner of Flannery O’Connor Prize from University of Georgia Press
Come out and join us in celebrating new work! And for Pete’s sake, bring some friends!
