How They Did It: Publishing After 40
Sunday Mar. 10 · 3 - 5pm
Page Street Berkeley · 2508 San Pablo Ave. Berkeley, CA 94702


co-presented by LitCamp

Due to inclement weather this past Sunday, we've rescheduled the event for 3/10. And just when a few tickets became available...it sold out again! We'll be recording for our podcast for those unable to attend. 

Alka Joshi, Anita Amirrezvani, Barbara Graham, Jacqueline E. Luckett, Jane Ganahl, and Mark Ernest Pothier will share practical advice and inspiration in this sure-to-be-lively discussion moderated by LitCamp's own Janis Cooke Newman, who also published her first book at 40+. Could this be your year? You'd better believe it! Find out how these pros did it, and get inspired!  $25

How to Come Alive with Norman Mailer
Sunday, February 25 • 5:45pm

Vogue Theater
3290 Sacramento St, San Francisco, CA 94115

Previously unseen footage and a bounty of interviews including Oliver Stone, John Waters, and ex-wives provide insightful new context on the notorious literary lion Norman Mailer. Zimbalist’s deft documentary portrait of Mailer connects his story to many aspects of the current discourse around cancel culture, censorship, and free speech, finding new relevancy in his work for our current times. Join us for the West Coast premiere. $18
