TUESDAY, May 8th at 7PM: "I WENT TO THE FAIRE..."

Seanchai Library went to Fantasy Faire for ten days, and many stories were told.  Our Caledonia was there for over two weeks, preparing and then overseeing operations for the LitFest.

Remarkably, she wields a pen almost as handily as she wields a sword, or changes out chair set-ups; and actually she wrote some things - quite a few things.  Tonight she shares selections from the stories and poems she write at this year's Fantasy Faire.

It's George R.R. Martin Day at Fantasy Faire!

Aoife Lorefield presents a different glimpse of the popular author through Martin's short stories. She will read the lyrically melancholy tale, The Lonely Songs of Laren Dorr. Published in 1976, Martin describes this story as "my first pure fantasy as a pro."

TUESDAY, April 25th at 7pm: THE MEAD OF POETS

"Do you wonder where poetry comes from? . . . It is a long story, and it does no credit to to anyone: there is murder in it, and trickery, lies, and foolishness, seduction and pursuit.  Listen."

Caledonia shares THE MEAD OF POETS, a story selected from Neil Gaiman's recently released "Norse Mythology", live in voice at Fantasy Faire LitFest 2017.

MONDAY, April 24th at 7pm: A MIRACLE OF SMALL FISHES


We begin the week at Fantasy Faire LitFest 2017, with Gyro and "A Miracle of Small Fishes" by Alan Dean Foster.

Grandfather Flores was old but not too old to keep fishing.  If only there were still fish.  The sardines were all caught before they got as far south as San Quentin.  All Grandfather wanted was just one more good catch.  It would take a miracle.

Presented Live in voice.

Shandon and Caledonia bring Neil Gaiman's "The Witch's Headstone" to this year's Fantasy Faire Litfest.

"Bod" never been to the unhallowed portion of the cemetery on the hill before, but in a moment of anger and frustration he goes there, and meets an unlikely friend.  Meanwhile, forces outside the graveyard continue their ill-intended to search for a child who disappeared - a very important child.
