SUMMARY:Freeman’s With Lauren Groff and Joshua Bennett
DESCRIPTION:Change. That ever-present\, essential\, inevitable part of life that we expect… and sometimes even embrace. The rapid\, universal change of the past 18 months—from a pandemic to political unrest—was felt in our work\, personal relationships; in every facet of our lives. Freeman’s\, an event that dovetails with the bi-annual journal of the same name\, discusses these changes of recent months\, and how we live with and adapt to change in our lives. Editor John Freeman is joined by Joshua Bennett (Owed) and Lauren Groff (Matrix) to explore two original pieces each author created for the journal\, and to muse on writing as a response and coping mechanism to change. Freeman’s is a highlight on the Writers Fest calendar for our regulars; always thought-provoking\, exquisitely literary\, and deeply human. \n\n\n\n\nModerated by John Freeman. \n\nJoshua Bennett (appearing virtually)\nLauren Groff (appearing in-person)\nJohn Freeman (appearing in-person)

SUMMARY:Spine-Chillingly Good: With Stephen  Graham Jones and Silvia Moreno-Garcia
DESCRIPTION:Sometimes writing makes you take a breath in anticipation. Sometimes it catches you off guard with new ideas that transcend what you’ve read before. And sometimes both. These authors have both defied and redefined the noir and thriller genres. Stephen Graham Jones’ The Only Good Indians was a New York Times bestseller and called “one of 2020’s buzziest horror novels” by Buzzfeed. He returns with My Heart is a Chainsaw in which a young female protagonist needs to save her town. Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s debut\, Mexican Gothic\, was a media favourite internationally\, thanks to its chilling gothic horror tropes and Jane Eyre/1950s Mexico mashup. Her latest\, Velvet Was the Night\, is a “delicious\, twisted treat.” Discover two of the most interesting writers who can make the hair on the back of your neck stand up\, as they talk craft\, the art of the scare\, and what draws them to the dark. \n\n\n\n\nModerated by Rob Wiersema. \n\nStephen Graham Jones (appearing virtually)\nSilvia Moreno-Garcia (appearing in-person)\nRob Wiersema (appearing in-person)
