Guest post: Brian McGuigan of Hugo House on supporting new authors

Brian McGuigan is one of the most influential writers and literary movers in Seattle. As the mastermind behind all the events at the city’s beloved Richard Hugo House, he’s the guy responsible for bringing authors like Sam Lipsyte to visit and he runs the most popular reading series in town, Cheap Wine and Poetry. DL is excited to have a chance to collaborate with him and Hugo House. Here’s what Brian had to say about our upcoming event…

Suzanne Morrison is exactly the kind of author Hugo House is here to support, a local about whom we’ll all be saying, “I remember her when….” Suzanne’s been a fixture in the arts community for several years and recently published her debut memoir, “Yoga Bitch,” a hilarious tale of her search for enlightenment. We’re honored to support Suzanne by  presenting her book launch in partnership with Debut Lit.

Awww. Come see Brian run circles around co-MC Rebekah from DEBUT LIT on stage:
