Littsburgh’s co-founder Rachel Ekstrom Courage (also a literary agent and author) was in New York for work this month, but we’re still going strong with the Talk Pittsburgh Book of the Month! This month: Millions of Suns: On Writing and Life by Sharon Fagan McDermott and M. Christine Benner Dixon!
Rachel’s been dropping in to Talk Pittsburgh on the first Monday of every month to talk about books and Pittsburgh (and, our favorite: Pittsburgh books!), and we’re so excited to be celebrating Pittsburgh’s literary scene with Heather Abraham and KDKA – so keep watching this space!
