First Thursday Preview

A five-Thursday April means we haven't met for an unusual three weeks. I hope everyone remained productive during their extra week.

We'll be reviewing an essay from David, a short from Bill, and a rare piece of prose from Montana. We'll also critique Kay's return to Bradford Falls and Chapter ??? from Zack's sci-fi, Oedipal-embracing, death novel.

Brian and I will likely discuss the Hudson Children's Book Festival for its business rather than literary merit. Then we'll dive into the big topic of the the past three weeks, the elephant in the room: the value of e-submitting. It's become popular and certainly piqued the interest of more than a few members. What does it mean for us, and where does it mean we're heading?

Should be fun, tense, potentially heated and the sort of business-driven discussion I'm thrilled we're undertaking. See you tomorrow night!

Details: 7-9pm, Holden Room at Crandall Library, with optional social afterwards.
