Literary Nights at the Issaquah Train Depot

Join fellow writers on the first Monday of “most” months at the Historic Issaquah Train Depot in the downtown Creative District from 7pm-9pm.

All are welcome. Free to participate or simply attend and enjoy.

Doors open half an hour before showtime.

Sign up is on a first-come basis and begins when doors open.

There are two sets of 5-minute readings with about ten people per set for a total of twenty readers. If time allows,  may be able to accommodate last minute entries into what’s called a “lightning round”, which allows folks to share short work, approximately 2-3 minutes.

There is a brief intermission, approximately fifteen minutes, between the two groupings of readers.

You don’t have to read! Guests and audience members are encouraged to attend.

The  literary salon on December 2 features three incredible authors:
– Sonya Lea, author of an Oprah recommended memoir, “Wondering Who You Are,” with her forthcoming book, “American Bloodlines: Lynch Culture in American”;
– Laura Da’ former poet laureate of the City of Redmond, Eastern Shawanee and winner of the Washington State Book Award with her book Instruments of True Measure; and
– Brianna Malotke, author of Lost Cherry and the forthcoming Death is a Tease, and co-chair of the Seattle Chapter of the Horror Writers Association.
