Jeff Brunings, Director of Development of the Tahoe Literary Festival, which also presents the Truckee Literary Crawl, says that the authors write in a number of different genres, from poetry to non-fiction, fiction, romance, children's literature, and more: 'These are really marquee authors, both locally in the North Tahoe area, the Reno area, as well as regionally throughout California, and as far away as Southern California, the Bay Area, Las Vegas. And we have authors coming in from the states of Washington, Utah, Colorado, just to attend and be part of the Truckee Literary Crawl.'
The authors will present readings from their works and take questions from the audience. The seven venues where events take place are 'all in easy, walkable distance from each other in downtown Truckee. They are art galleries. There's a theater. We have brew pubs, restaurants.'
'What I love about the Truckee Literary Crawl,' Brunings continues, 'it really is something for everyone. People who simply love to read, this is their chance to meet, get up close, and listen and ask questions of some of their favorite authors. It also attracts those that are inspired to write more and possibly even get published. And it's such a rare opportunity to hear the written word spoken by the person who wrote it.'
