The 20th Annual Spring Literary Festival is happening soon at Western Carolina University! The festival spans March 14-17. All readings will be free and open to the public.
This year's visiting writers include Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Deesha Philyaw, Wiley Cash, Ashley M. Jones, Eduardo
Corral, Torrey Peters, Rachel Yoder, Kerry Howley, James Tate Hill, Ed Southern, Karen
Salyer McElmurray, Steve Scafidi, Brian Brodeur, Meagan Lucas, and Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet Kenneth Chamlee and the younger poets whom he's mentored this year. The Festival is a wonderful opportunity to hear so many acclaimed and talented writers in one place in WNC.
Readings take place at 12:00, 4:00, and 7:00 on all four days. Most are
held in the U.C. Theater in the A. K. Hinds University Center, 245 Memorial Dr, Cullowhee, NC 28723.
I love Aimee Nezhukumatathil's poems, and she does a great reading!
