Poets & Writers Theater

In this event at the Writer’s Center, John Vercher reads from his third novel, Devil Is Fine (Celadon, 2024), and discusses how surrealist and absurdist fiction can be a vehicle to greater truths in a conversation with author Chet’la Sebree.

“I wanted to try and write something more fun and more upbeat.” In this Waterstones interview, Alex Michaelides talks about the spontaneous and playful experience of writing his latest novel, The Fury (Celadon, 2024), and how both his upbringing in Cyprus and career in Hollywood shaped his thrilling story.

“I tried to do it too fast. I rushed it, which is never a good idea with writing.” In this Lighthouse Writers Workshop video, Rachel Weaver speaks with author R. L. Maizes about the publishing process of her books, how she was told there is no market for short story collections, and how her first book of short stories and new novel, Other People’s Pets (Celadon, 2020), came to be. Other People’s Pets is featured in Page One in the July/August issue of Poets & Writers Magazine.
