If you are in Oakland CA or the Bay Area, you might want to check out the “Eyes on the Prize” reading 5-7 pm tonight at the Oakland Liberation Center, 1499 Fruitvale Ave., Oakland.

The reading will feature SF Writers Grotto authors who were finalists for literary prizes but did not win. All of the readers are talented and entertaining, and I’m looking forward to a good time. For my segment, I will share a few pages of my irreverent sixties road novel, Lucky Ride, which was a finalist for the Maxy Award.

Hope to see you there!

A worthy benefit for a beautiful library. Lucky Ride and I greatly enjoyed ourselves and were thrilled to be invited.

Everyone was warm and welcoming, and I loved talking about literature and answering questions about my books and my writing journey.

Hope to See You at AWP23 in Seattle 3/9-11!
