Just in time for the AWWYP June 15 get together in Oceanside, San Diego is celebrating writers with a downtown festival! And our dear diva Tiva is in a panel! Way to go Tiffalicious!
Literati!
We didn’t do it, but we wish we did!
San Diego now has a writers festival, whose secret mission is to woo me back for our Annual Writers’ and Creatives’ Reunion at the hacienda of Victor Villasenor on June 15th. I’ll be Czeched out until then, but they are still sending flowers and candy.

Not only that, our associate editor and resident diva, Tiffany Vakilian, will be speaking! Her panel takes place right after Piper Kerman’s interview. Kerman is this year’s keynote speaker, and author of the bestseller (now a hit series on Netflix), Orange is the New Black.
Thornton Sully has Jack-Londoned his way across the globe sleeping with whatever country would have him, and picking up stray stories along the way. A litter of dog-eared passports that have taken up residence in his sock drawer are a constant temptation, but, as the founder in 2009 of A Word with You Press, dedicated to helping you tell your story persuasively and with passion, it’s not likely he will stray too far from the towers that are A Word with You Press, now located in the Bohemian village of Ceske Budejovice in the Czech Republic, except, perhaps, for an occasional swim in the Aegean. Authors who have sought his advice have won major awards, including the Pulitzer Prize, the Isabel Allende Miraposa Award for new fiction, and the Best Poetry Award from San Diego Writers’ Awards.
“I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.” Thornton Sully, plagiarizing E.B. White
Wow, Thorn–thanks for the love! I wish you could be there physically, but you are always there for me and with me in your own other magical ways. Bring on the contest! And get ready for a nice big hug and kiss on June 15th!
