Tinney Ripples Best of Baltimore List

Jason Tinney’s short story collection, Ripple Meets the Deep, was named Baltimore’s Best Book for 2015 by Baltimore Magazine.

“Any year Anne Tyler publishes a book it’s difficult to recognize anyone but the acclaimed Baltimore resident. But this book of short stories by Jason Tinney, a Frederick resident and occasional Baltimore contributor, distinguishes itself as a tour de force, rippling with nuance. Its bold scenes and characters from various walks of life who grapple with mortality and search for salvation, are expertly crafted, and leave you wanting more.” – Baltimore, “Best of Baltimore”, August 2015.

Where can you meet Jason and hear him read from Baltimore’s best book? At the next Lit & Art event!

Join Lit and Art at the Baltimore Book Festival’s CityLit Tent on Sunday, September 27 at 2 p.m. for readings by Jason Tinney, Holly Morse-Ellington, Richard Peabody, and Gregg Wilhelm, Eric D. Goodman, and Nitin Jagdish. WYPR’s Aaron Henkin will emcee.

Congratulations Jason! Learn more about Ripple Meets the Deep at his website.

The Best of Baltimore

Baltimore Magazine has given City Sages the "Best of Baltimore" award!

City Sages is the first book published by CityLit Press.

Congratulations to editor Jen Michalski, cover designer Justin Sirois, CityLit founder and executive director Gregg Wilhelm, and all the "sages" who contributed their literary art to the anthology.

Pick up a copy of the August issue of Baltimore. Then, pick up a copy of City Sages.

Why not get your copy at Baltimore’s third best bookstore, Atomic Books (which ranked after the power chains)? And read it at Baltimore’s best bar, The Brewer’s Art (which Esquire rated the best bar in America). You won’t be able to watch the movie version at Baltimore’s third best theater, because The Senator has closed its doors. But Patterson, Federal Hill, and Oriole Parks are all open for your reading pleasure.
