I know it’s already mid-week, but we are approaching the good half. Why not make it even better with a FREE literary event lineup?
For the 15th year, Columbia College Chicago presents its Story Week Festival of Writers. This year’s theme, “Class Acts,” centers on class issues’ role in creative works and the changing publishing environment. You can catch readings, performances, discussions, and signings through Friday, March 18.
Although disappointed at missing Joe Meno’s Monday afternoon appearance and tonight’s Literary Rock & Roll reading at Metro, I am gearing up for Friday’s Chicago Classics finale. Join me at Lincoln Hall to hear a host of Chicago literati reading from their favorite Chicago-authored works. For the tweet-savvy among you, Dan Sinker, the recently self-outed author of @MayorEmanuel‘s tweets contributes to Wednesday and Thursday panel discussions. Oh, did I mention Sinker is also a longtime Chicago author, publisher, and Columbia journalism professor?
