Los Angeles Literature Events: 3/24/25 – 3/30/25

A huge week in Los Angeles Literature. The annual AWP Conference is in Los Ángeles this week for the first time since 2016. This means there are tons of off-site reading with tons of powerful local writers and writers from out of town in L.Á. for the conference. Some of the off-site readings are listed in the events list and others can be found here: Off-Site Events. Some writers reading locally this week are: Francesca Lia Block, Marcus Clayton, Brynn Saito, Lorna Dee Cervantes, Skye Jackson, Major Jackson, Brandon Som, Sara Borjas and Chen Chen. In these troubling times it’s more important than ever to support the local literary community and the written word. #losangelesliteratureLos Angeles Literature Events: 3/24/25 – 3/30/25 Continue reading Los Angeles Literature Events: 3/24/25 – 3/30/25
