Man up with Portuguese Artists Colony on May 27 at Hotel Rex. We'll hold your hand in the grim morning-after light.
Featuring guest readers:
Local singer Songwriter David Berkeley wrote most of the songs from his latest album Some Kind of Cure while living in a 40-person village in the mountains of Corsica. He also penned a memoir called 140 Goats and a Guitar, which tells the stories that inspired those songs.
Jane Ganahl has been a journalist, author, editor and arts producer in San Francisco for 30 years. She is the co-founder and co-director of Litquake, the West Coast’s largest independent literary festival. She is also the author of the memoir Naked on the Page: the Misadventures of My Unmarried Midlife.
Plus! We have two live writing winners:
Actual Portuguese-American Linette Escobar won March's live writing with the prompt, "She craved nachos."
"Not-a-writer" Kevin Hunsanger returns with his winning piece about a hoarder from February's show.
Live music from the wonderful Erma Kyriakos. Listen to her songs here, and watch for the full-length album!
Live writing:
Vote on a prompt as you enter the show, and four writers will write on the winning topic while you watch them sweat, swear, and get inspired. Each writer will read what he/she wrote, and you get to vote on which piece you'd like to see developed into a finished story/poem/rant to be read at the next PAC performance. It's a thrill - place your bets now!
