CARBONDALE, Ill. The venerable Little Grassy Literary Festival at Southern Illinois University Carbondale will take on a different twist this year while still featuring a variety of renowned literary authors.
This year’s event, which begins Monday, April 5, and runs through April 9, will feature six authors and six poets who will read their work during 5 p.m. readings every night. There will also be three 11 a.m. panels where the audience can ask authors how they created their work or how they became successful writers. An open mic is set for 7 to 9 p.m. April 9 for anyone interested in sharing their work.
