What a night of masterful writing at Yuba Lit: The Art of the Short Story September 14th at Nevada City’s National Hotel. We celebrated Josh Weil’s new story collection, welcomed Marilyn Abildskov to town, enjoyed the latest story from local legend Louis B. Jones–and marveled at our audacious, commanding audience flash readers! With great thanks to our readers and to everyone who attended for making Nevada City a great place of literary community. And tremendous thanks to Andrea Roach for her photography.
