"Lit Crawl, the world's largest literary pub crawl and Litquake's annual Mission District finale, will take place on October 25th this year, bringing together thousands of writers and fans. Now in its 21st year, Lit Crawl is "a perfect reflection of the Bay Area literary scene: prismatic, chaotic, totally free," says poet T.S. Leonard. The magic of Lit Crawl is the platform it provides for individual voices while presenting a vibrant whole. It's much like the many mosaics that enrich the Mission neighborhood and express its rich cultural history."
"Trans Love Stories: The Meet-Cute featuring Grayson Thompson, Isaac Fellman, M. M. Olivas, Eden Nobile, June Martin, and Violet. Oakland-based writer and comic artist Martin says, "Leave with a new appreciation for the variety of perspectives and approaches trans authors take to even a subject as well-trodden as love." Savor romance at 5:00 p.m. at Silver Sprocket (1018 Valencia)."
"Kindred: All the Ways Poetry Says Sisterhood featuring Sabina Khan-Ibarra, MK Chavez, Preeti Vangani, and Maw Shein Win. "When blood can't hold [sisterhood], we build it with those joined to us by witness, work, and love," says Khan-Ibarra. Other "sisters" chime in: Each her and her and her a particle of dust birthing storms each her a storm that cooks, creates, cradles but never settles I think about our sisters. We touch their feet. - Maw Shein Win"
