Author, teacher and Sarabandista, Kirby Gann, will share his latest literary release, ‘Ghosting’, tomorrow afternoon, Saturday, April 21st at Carmichael’s Bookstore. Stop by at 4pm – you’ve got hours to kill before all that nonsense at the waterfront.

Rising poetic talents from colleges throughout the state were honored this past Sunday with a round of prize money, applause and – of course – pie at Sarabande Books’ 2012 Pie Party.
