7:00 PM – Maria Semple: This One is Mine
Antioch University
The former sitcom writer, who recently relocated to Seattle, reads from her debut novel. Semple appeared at the UW Bookstore back on 01/22, so if you missed her, and are very, very sad about it, you can catch her tonight. Allegedly, there will be beverages. I don’t know if they will be adult beverages or just carafes of crappy coffee with a basket of those little fake creamer cups, the announcement doesn’t say.
