Maine novelist Paul Doiron (author of the Mike Bowditch series) and poet Kristen Lindquist will share the stage on Saturday, April 29, at 7:00pm in Brunswick for a fundraiser to support literacy education. The evening will feature the two authors reading from their work and in conversation about craft and the power of words. Doiron and Lindquist, who are also a married couple, have lived and written side-by-side for many years, both drawing inspiration from their shared experiences in the Maine landscape. A reception and meet-and-greet with the authors will follow.

All proceeds from the event will benefit Midcoast Literacy, a non-profit organization that provides free literacy programs for people of all ages, including the growing number of multilingual families who have recently moved to the Brunswick area.

Tickets are $30 per person and can be purchased from Midcoast Literacy at www.midcoastliteracy.org or by calling 207-443-6384.
