Hi Lit Walk Fans! We are considering extending time between the author talks to allow greater enjoyment of downtown businesses and provide opportunities for more conversation after each talk. Please complete this survey and let us know your thoughts!

Wade Rouse (Viola Shipman) shares about his special relationship with his grandmother whose name he uses as his pen name for his fictional works. We are so grateful Wade joined us for this year’s Walk. Thank to all who joined us.

We hope that Dr. Divakaruni recovers quickly from her broken arm and appreciate her quick pivot to join us live virtually!
