We are delighted to present three incredible fiction writers who will each read from their fantastical works and discuss craft moves they utilize to create distinctive speculative worlds and expand the imagination into the possible.
Leyna Krow, the winner of the 2026 PNBA award for her collection,
Sinkhole, and Other Inexplicable Voids, will lead a discussion with
TJ Fuller, author of
Some Stupid Glow, and Lindsey Drager, author of
The Avian Hourglass and the Shirley Jackson award-winning
The Lost Daughter Collective. They will discuss how they add dimension to an idea through humor and voice, while exploring the intersections of climate change, politics, family, and place.
This event is free and open to the public.
