April’s Showers Bring Great Readings

The next Lit and Art at the Watermark takes place on Sunday, April 24 from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Watermark Gallery, 100 S. Charles Street, in the Bank of America building across from Baltimore's inner harbor. Come and be showered with some great lit, art, and music.


Featured readers include Robin E. Black, Kathy Flann, Christopher T. George, Tom Glenn, Sherry Audette Morrow, and Rosalia Scalia. Live music Braking Rays (Elizabeth Elliott and Larry Montgomery). Original art by Manzar. I’ll be your hosts for the afternoon: welcome to Fantasy Island.


Readings, live music, original art, open mic, free refreshments — the best excuse to get lit on a Sunday afternoon in Baltimore! Join us, and feel free to bring five minutes of your own best work to share during open mic.

Find Your Perfect Literary Match at the CityLit Fest


The 13th annual CityLit Festival takes place this Friday and Saturday. Headliners include Claudia Rankine, E. Ethelbert Miller, and Paul Lisicky, Stanley Plumly, Susan Muaddi Jarraj, Kathy Flann, Amber Sparks, Laura Shovan, Reggie Harris, Elisabeth Dahl, Jill Coupe, Shirley Brewer, and many more.

I’ll be participating on Saturday, April 16 as part of the @ CityLit Speed session. The event includes two hours of “speed dating” with literary magazines, small presses, and reading series. Bring your best writing sample along and share for five or 10 minutes with us to find your perfect literary match. Is your work suited for this literary journal, that press, or one of the area’s popular reading series?

I’ll be representing the popular Lit and Art reading series, so if you’ve always wanted to be considered as a featured reader at the series, be sure to stop by.
