In November, the IWOSC Westside Satellite
is excited to feature participants and people who signed up for our mailing
list as Reader/Writers. We’ve had a wonderful response, with writing that spans
science fiction, memoir, novel, flash fiction, travel writing, and magical
realism.
They’ll be appearing at our regular
location for the satellite, St. Mary’s of Palms, and the public is invited to
come hear their work for a $5 fee.
