Two late additions to the local literary calendar:
- Thurs 8/20, 7:30pm – Skylight Books in Los Feliz presents Dave Eggers reading from and signing his Hurricane Katrina novel, Zeitoun
- Sun 8/30, 6pm – at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood (1623 1/2 N. Cahuenga), Tongue & Groove presents the worth-the-price- of-admission-alone Mary Otis (her book Yes, Yes, Cherries is a must for short story lovers), along with fellow New Short Fiction Series alum Larry Fondation; as well as Janet Sarbanes and Antonio Sacre

Ah shucks! I can’t make that one. It’s my daughter’s b’day–a can’t miss event.
Looking forward to your suggestions for September! Sept. 12 10-6 at the Mission Viejo Library there is an event featuring different venues of writers. I’m going because Lisa See will be there and I’m a great fan of hers.
