I am in love with the Newburyport Literary Festival for so many reasons, not the least of which is that it is truly a celebration of readers and writers. It all begins tonight with the opening ceremony and dinner with the authors. I will be at both, celebrating my buddy, Matthew Quick, who is this year’s honoree.
Then, bright and early, tomorrow morning I have my two events:
At 9AM, I will be at the Newburyport Art Association, reading from I AM HOLDING YOUR HAND
At 11AM, I will on a panel, Sustaining Momentum: The Art of the Short Story, at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Newburyport
The schedule is packed with author readings and panels. I hope if you live nearby, you will make the trip to Newburyport to enjoy the festival and our beautiful town.
