I am happy to report that I recently heard from Teresa S. Mathes<\/strong> and Pat Rahmann<\/strong> that they will be able to read at out next event, which is Thursday, July 21, at The\u00a0BookMarket<\/a> in Glenview. \u00a0Woo-hoo! \u00a0And just so you know, the BookMarket is part of the Barbara’s Bookstores chain. \u00a0Barbara’s UIC hosted our May 12 event, and we thank Barbara’s for supporting us again.<\/p>\n

When I met Teresa S. Mathes (Terri), she \u00a0lived in Northfield. \u00a0Now she resides in San Diego and has arranged a stopover in Chicago between business trips. \u00a0People from the Glenview\/Northfield area might know Terri from St. James the Lesser Episcopal Church where her husband served as rector. \u00a0I got to know Terri through the writing group I have previously mentioned in other posts. \u00a0It is a 50-member group that meets in Glencoe, IL, and is simply known as The Writers<\/strong>, and it has been around since the 1960s (or maybe even earlier). \u00a0It is through The Writers that I also met Pat Rahmann. \u00a0She is known as a novelist and playwright, but has contributed a poem to Solace in So Many Words<\/em>. As one of the proprietors of Books on Vernon, Pat was instrumental in helping to establish\u00a0Writers’ Theatre<\/a>, providing it with (among other things) its first home in the back of the bookstore. \u00a0On Wednesday mornings, The Writers would meet there too, discussing manuscripts. When our thoughts wandered from the pages at hand, we could look at the stage and marvel how it was transformed for the latest play. \u00a0We meet at a church now and though the room can handily accommodate The Writers around a table, I still miss the back of the bookstore with its magical atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Other writers who will read at the event incude D. J. Lachance<\/strong> from Milwaukee, Kathleene Donahoo<\/strong> (from Lake Forest, IL and also a member of The Writers), J. Scott Smith<\/strong> (from Wilmette, IL, a musician and writer who is also a member of The Writers and one of this year’s co-presidents of that group), and Joan Corwin<\/strong> (from Evanston, IL, and also a member of The Writers). \u00a0We are awaiting the spring\/summer issue of the lit journal Pearl<\/a><\/em> <\/strong>to read Joan’s “Gone Missing<\/strong>,” which won the Pearl Magazine Fiction Prize. I’ll let you know when the magazine is available.<\/p>\n

So to recap, here’s the information on our next event for\u00a0Solace in So Many Words<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
