Brad Kuhn and Darlyn Finch Kuhn are thrilled to read at Community Cafe in St. Pete on Saturday, March 17 from 3-5 p.m. as part of the Southeast Sister Cities Reading Tour.  Darlyn will read from her debut novel, Sewing Holes, and Brad will dip into his almost-ready-for-prime-time magnum opus. You won’t want to miss it!

Award-winning journalist, author, poet, speechwriter and media consultant Brad Kuhn was a staff writer for The Wall Street Journal, Orlando Sentinel, and Orlando Business Journal and wrote I Hate My Banker. He won the Gwendolyn Brooks Poetry Prize, and co-authored the poetry collection Three Houses. A founding director of Shady Lane Press and The Jack Kerouac House Writers in Residence Project of Orlando, he is a frequent contributor to Orlando Magazine, and has led writing workshops throughout Florida.

Darlyn Finch Kuhn is a prolific poet, short-story writer, and novelist who edits the Scribbles literary e-newsletter and produces book trailer videos. Her debut novel, Sewing Holes, available from Twisted Road Publications, won First Place in the published novella category of the FWA’s 2015 Royal Palm Literary Awards. In addition to her two poetry collections (Red Wax Rose and Three Houses) her work has appeared in literary journals, newspapers, magazines and online. Her poems have been featured on Poetic Logic on WMFE-FM, and been read on the Writers Almanac. She was interviewed on World Radio Paris.

The Southeast Sister Cities Reading Tour concept is simple. Our writers read in your town. Then your writers read in our town.

A group of Jacksonville authors will visit St. Petersburg for this first event. In turn, a group of St. Pete authors will be heading to Jacksonville on April 7th.

This event is co-presented by Wordier Than Thou and Scribbles, with thanks to Community Cafe.
