Mendocino LitFest is shaping up!

Over the past several months, Dot Brovarney and I have been working on a project to bring a number of quality writers to the Ukiah Valley via Mendocino College and the Friends of the Mendocino College Library, an associate group of the Mendocino College Foundation. With seed money from the The Community Foundation of Mendocino County, we have been able to get organized for a two-day event in June 2007.

On Friday, June 1st, we will host Gary Soto for an evening reading/Q&A at the Little Theater. He will follow that with a morning activity on Saturday, June 2nd. That is when there will be a whole line-up of writers doing readings, workshops, and panel discussions. The other writers included are: Sarah Andrews, Ianthe Brautigan-Swensen, Armandt Brint, Armando Garcia-Davila, Jody Gehrman, Gerald Haslam, Jean Hegland, Hal Zina Bennett, David Smith-Ferri, Valerie Miner, Linda Noel, Jordan Rosenfeld, Rebecca Lawton, Dylan Schaffer, Dan Imhoff, and Mark Bittner.

Keep watching this blog and the Mendocino College and Mendocino College Library sites for more news and updates about the event: http://www.mendocino.edu and http://www.mendocino.edu/mendocinocollegelibrary .
