Miami Serenade

Miami Serenade

I’ll be doing a couple of events in Miami this weekend. On Friday, Sept. 10, at 7:00 p.m., I’ll be reading at the CAS Gallery (1210 Stanford Drive) at the University of Miami to kick off the Goran Reading Series, which celebrates Lester Goran’s 50-year teaching tenure at the University of Miami. On Saturday, Sept. 11, I’ll be conducting a community workshop in flash fiction at Books & Books in Coral Gables. Both events are free and open to the public, but the Books & Books event is filling up fast, so reservations are recommended (see below). If you’re a long-lost friend, or a reader down Miami way, please stop by and say hello.

From Books & Books:
“Join bestselling author Michelle Richmond for a workshop in which she’ll share her secrets and tricks in crafting vital, mesmerizing flash fiction. With in-depth exploration of samples, writing exercises, and an open discussion not only of fundamentals of fiction but of the broader writing world. Free and open to the public, but space is limited, so please reserve early. RSVP to jalison@miami.edu.”

The Year of Fog has just gone into its 21st paperback printing. I’m celebrating with biscuits and eggs for dinner. Because who doesn’t love biscuits for dinner?

So I’m improvising.
