Latino Book Club Reading at Pomegranate Books, Feb 28th

Happily scheduled to give a reading this coming weekend in Wilmington. The event is hosted by the Latino Book Club and will be held at Pomegranate Books. So, on Saturday, February 28th from 3-4pm, come support Latino/a writers and browse a local bookstore and say hi to me, too, while you're at it.

Thanks to Dr. Amrita Das for the invitation and to Kathleen Jewell for providing the space (again!). Also, I'm pretty sure their new coffee shop is open.

The Latino Book Club fosters literacy and the increased representation of Latino culture in the U.S. You can be a part of that effort! The readings are in English.

I'm grateful to the North Carolina Writers' Network for keeping us "the writingest state." Become a member to keep up on readings in NC and to bolster the outstanding group of writers who call this state home. Let's fight the good fight against the creeps who are trying to run us all aground.
