On January 17th, our special birthday guest reader will be Michael Giorgio!
MICHAEL GIORGIO got his start in writing in what many consider a dead, or at least a lost, art: Radio Drama. His first work won a national scriptwriting contest and a love of writing was born. Since then, he has had over a dozen audio scripts produced in Newark, Los Angeles, Akron, San Francisco, and Tennessee.
Michael will be reading from his third full length novel, A Week Of Criminal Happiness, to be released by Black Rose Writing in June of 2020. Michael’s second full length novel, The Memory Swindlers, was released in 2016 by Black Rose Writing and is the sequel to his first full length novel, Justice Comes Home, released in 2014.
An Active Member of the Mystery Writers of America and the Short Fiction Mystery Society, Michael has had both mystery and mainstream short stories published in magazines such as The Strand, Mystery Time, Up Dere?, Prose Ax, My Legacy, Fighting Chance, and Lunatic Chameleon. His fiction has also been anthologized in The Mammoth Book of Tales from the Road (Carroll and Graf), The Mammoth Book of On the Road (Robinson), It’s That Time Again: The New Stories of Old Time Radio (BearManor Media), and Who Died in Here? (Penury Press). For more about Michael and his work, please visit www.michaelgiorgio.org.
Three AllWriters’ students will be reading as well, showcasing nonfiction, fiction and poetry, and as an example of AllWriters’ students’ publishing prowess. They are:
- Jim Landwehr (nonfiction), reading from his new book, The Portland House, AND an AllWriters’ author who has more than one book out!
- Kathrine Yets (poetry), reading from her new book, So I Can Write, AND an AllWriters’ author with her first book out!
- Jeff Konkol (fiction), reading from his book, Citadel Of The Fallen, AND an AllWriters’ author who just had his first book accepted!
Kathie Giorgio, AllWriters’ Founder and Director, will be reading as well, offering several poems from her 11th book, No Matter Which Way You Look, There Is More To See, due to be released in 2020, and a selection from her work in progress, a novel called The Ripple Effect.
Join us at Café De Arts at 6PM on Friday, January 17th, and see what we’re made of!
