I’m looking forward to participating in the Tennessee Williams Festival again this weekend at the Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans.
Sunday morning, March 26, I’ll be speaking with writers Mahyar Amouzegar, Tom Cooper, Louis Edwards, and Roy Hoffman about “Character and Setting.”
It’s an all-male panel, so you can bet there’ll be lots of drinking and cussing. Come join us if you’re in town. More info below and in link. Get your Tennessee on.
OH, THE PLACES YOU’LL GO: CONNECTING CHARACTER AND SETTING
Sunday, March 27, 11:30 AM—12:45 PM—Literary Discussion
Placing a character in a particular setting opens up so many narrative choices—how the characters engage with that landscape, how to authentically create life in a specific place. Sometimes the setting itself becomes a character. These writers have set their work in places as diverse as Florida and Syria during wartime, and they will discuss powerful relationships between people and places. Panelists include Tom Cooper, Louis Edwards, Roy Hoffman, and Mahyar Amouzegar. Moderator: George Bishop, Jr.
