Printers Row Lit Fest 2024!

I’ll be hawking my wares at Printers Row Litfest again this year. Drop by the Chicago Writers Association table on Saturday, September 7th from 12:30 to 3:00. You don’t have (snicker) to purchase a copy of “A Trace of Gold,” “The Blue Silence,” “Kiddieland,” or all there issues of “Litbop: Art and Literature in the Groove.” Just fall by and say ‘Hi!”
But before you do, check out the presentations by some of my author pals. At 10:00 on the North Stage, you can hear some Mystery Minute Readings with Sara Paretsky, Lori Rader-Day, Tracy Clark, and Susanna Calkins. And if you enjoyed “Working” by the great Studs Terkel, you owe it to yourself to stop at the Plymouth Court Stage at 11:00 for an interview with Mark Larson, author of “Working in the 21st Century: An Oral History of American Work in a Time of Social and Economic Transformation.”
