Why There Are Words PDX Launch Event

The insanely wonderful SF-based reading series (and press) Why There Are Words is branching out, with new series in New York and now Portland, Oregon.

I’ll be reading along with David Bielspiel, Elyse Fenton, Jacqueline Keeler, Sara Quinn Rivara, and Wendy Willis.

I hope you’ll be there – the Leach Botanical Garden is one of the most beautiful places in Portland.

Hope you come by to help us celebrate.
