Don’t miss the next annual Words and Wine Benefit at the Catonsville Library this Friday, October 11 at 7 p.m. at the Catonsville Library. Tickets are $25 and include not only the opportunity to mingle and chat with some of your favorite local authors as you listen to jazz guitar, but also all the wine you can drink and cheese you can eat. (And you can certainly get your money’s worth out of the wine and cheese—and help the library at the same time!)

This year’s authors include Jen Michalski, Rafael Alvarez, Rob Kasper, Dan Toomy, and a host of others. My wife and I will be there with copies of Tracks and Flightless Goose.


And don’t forget … The next Lit and Art takes place this Sunday, October 13 from 2 to 5 p.m. at Watermark Gallery, 100 S. Charles St., across from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. See the previous post for more details.
