A Fulbright Fellow who studied in Munich, Anderson is also a literary translator of crime and mystery fiction by German novelists Alexander Hartung, Marcus Huennebeck, and others.
He was recently interviewed on KLTV’s “Book Chat” program, which can be viewed at http://www.alan-rose.com.
Susan Rose will read from her Young Adult fantasy, Shattered Crust, published in January, which she describes as “a love story, mystery, fantasy and suspense,” set in Yellowstone National Park. She is currently working on a sequel, Beneath the Crust: Yellowstone’s Secret Jewel.
Rose lives in the Pacific Northwest and has had her short stories published in the Not Your Mother’s Book anthology series.
WordFest regular Ed Putka will read another of his popular Cleveland stories, set in the Polish neighborhood of his youth. This story involves a picnic at Munroe Falls with the extended family. What could go wrong?
There will be an open mic period following the presentations.
