March 29
Women Read/Women Write
Pittsburgh’s largest literary festival will take place March 29 at the Andrew Carnegie Music Hall in Carnegie and feature 40 national and regional authors who will sign books, talk to readers and debate literary happenings relevant to women.
“Women Read/Women Write celebrates the books women love,” says novelist Gwyn Cready, author of “Just in Time for a Highlander.” Cready co-founded the festival along with Meredith Mileti, South Hills resident and author of “Aftertaste: A Novel in Five Courses.”
Among the writers scheduled to appear are South Hills authors Madeline Hunter, The New York Times best-selling author of “His Wicked Reputation;” Mitchell J. Kaplan, author of “By Fire, By Water;” Louise Machinist, Karen Bush and Jean McQuillin, authors of “My House, Our House;” and Teri Coyne, author of “The Last Bridge.” Other authors scheduled to appear include Kathryn Miller Haines, Kathleen Shoop, Kristin Bair O’Keeffe, Kathleen George and Nancy Martin.
The event will include four author panel discussions, vendors including Sabika and a food truck. Admission to the festival is $10. In addition, writing workshops led by best-selling authors will be offered for an additional cost.
