K.E. Semmel is celebrating the launch of his debut novel, The Book of Losman, and I’m thrilled he invited me to be a part of the program this Sunday, October 20, at The Writer’s Center in Bethesda. The event begins at 2 p.m. at 4508 Walsh Street, Bethesda, and you can find full info here.
Kyle and I first met in grad school at George Mason University, and we became fast friends as well as regular workshop partners, both in our courses at Mason and outside of class as part of a small writing group. I was always impressed by Kyle’s work—both his dedication to his craft and the fiction itself—and I’ve marveled at his successes ever since, as a writer, as a translator, and as a terrific literary citizen too, working at various literary organizations over the years, including The Writer’s Center itself!
Come join us on Sunday, October 20, for a reading and conversation. Looking forward to it!
