L-R counter-clockwise: Chinyere Nwodim, Shubha Venugopal, Janine Lim, and Roxana Preciado.
Despite the heat and the Dodger game traffic (yes, they won!👍⚾), many persevered and the evening was divine! The weather cooperated, providing a cool breeze while guests and writers enjoyed refreshments on the outside veranda before convening in the parlor for a reading by each panelist.
A brief q&a followed "where and how do the writers write" info was shared, the writers provided advice for other emerging and aspiring writers, and we discussed how much reality goes into fiction.
If you were there, thank you for coming and for being part of this magical night.
If you missed the magic, please RSVP for 11/14 when we do it all again with a different group of writers and a specific discussion topic. Women who have published books and have been on the writing scene considerably longer than the emerging writers will read from their work and talk about identity. What does it mean? How does it impact their work if at all? Is it important in their conscious choices when developing a story?
Dr. Shubha Venugopal, CSUN Professor of Africana Studies and Literature, will return as moderator this time. Teresa Lo, Thea Monyee, and Desiree Zamorano will come ready to enchant us with their work and their words.
Reception at 6:00 pm: Program commences at 6:30 pm. Beat the traffic and come early. Picnic on the grounds or on the beach. RSVP via Eventbrite.
