The One Page Salon (called “the best literary evening in town” by the Austin American-Statesman) is a monthly reading series presented by the Writers’ League of Texas and Owen Egerton.
For the June One Page Salon, we’ve got a wild line up for what promises to be a memorable night! Multi-award winning and Texas Literary Hall of Fame novelist Sarah Bird, poet, host, living soul-hug Joe Brundidge, the wild talents of Typewriter Rodeo (celebrating ten years of poetry!), story-bender and horror screenwriter Felix Morgan, and folk music heartthrob Southpaw Jones. These amazing storytellers will read one page from a work in progress – which means the audience will be among the first to hear original new material from our talented line-up.
This magical evening of literary goodness will be hosted by our literary hero and our dear friend Owen Egerton, stepping onto the OPS stage as host for the last time (well, never say never, but for now we’re saying last). Which means this One Page Salon will include some extra special specialness – and surprises that we can’t mention here or Owen might hear about them.
The One Page Salon takes place starting at 7:30 PM CDT on the lovely outdoor patio at Radio Coffee & Beer in South Austin (4204 Menchaca Rd, Austin, TX 78704) where attendees can enjoy coffee and beer and other libations. There are some tasty food trucks if you want to pick up a bite to eat and Reverie Books will be on hand selling an assortment of great reads, including our readers’ latest books.
No need to RSVP, just show up.
