Presented by Richard Hugo House. Hugo House offers this three-day gathering which will feature an array of panels and presentations, a small press bookfair, and much more—all looking at how writing happens (and doesn't), and how readers for the work may be found (or not). It's an ambitious undertaking. Many key book people—authors, agents, teachers, editors, marketers, booksellers—from a variety of perspectives will be there presenting. Among them: Vladimir Verano, Matthew Stadler, Barbara Sjoholm, Elizabeth Wales, Diane Mapes, Midge Raymond, Alan Rinzler, Jeff Vandermeer, Alice Acheson, Lyanda Haupt, Susan Rich, Priscilla Long, Wendy Coll, Kelli Russell Agodon, David Schmader, Karen Finneyfrock, Summer Robinson of Pilot Books, our own Karen Maeda Allman, and more. For details/registration and much information, please see www.hugohouse.org, or call (206) 322-7030. Richard Hugo House is at 1634 Eleventh Avenue—two blocks from our new home.
