I got a press release concerning a “Lit Crawl LosAngeles” to be held in North Hollywood.
The event will include many LGBTQ books according to
what I am told.
The group sets up book and literature fairs in various
cities. The word “crawl” comes from the
idea of a “pub crawl” (like in the UK movie “World’s End”). I wonder if the event has occurred in Minneapolis (in the Uptown area near the Lagoon Theater is the obvious place).
The press release from PlatformMedia Group(site
requires Adobe flash) reads:
“We’re are aware how busy
the book season is around this time of year so we’d hope to get this on your
radar ASAP.
“We’re pleased to
announce this year's Lit Crawl® L.A. on Wednesday, October 25,
2017. For the FIFTH consecutive year, thousands of literary arts
lovers from throughout Southern California are expected to converge in the
North Hollywood Arts District for one night of “literary mayhem.”
“As you might recall,
Lit Crawl is a choose-your-own literary adventure experience featuring
dozens of restaurants, theaters, galleries, bars, and other unique venues
hosting literary events over the course of three rounds. From readings to
performances, the 5th annual Lit Crawl L.A. will be an unforgettable—and
entirely walkable— experience.
“I can’t guarantee this
but I think that besides the Festival of Books, the Lit Crawl is one of the
four or five biggest annual literary events in LA.
“We hope you have an
opportunity to feature it and we’ve attached our press release and the
full schedule for your reference.
“We’d also be happy to
coordinate any interviews with the founders or participants. If you need
anything else, please don’t hesitate to contact me.”
I was last in LA in 2012 (including West Hollywood,
including the Abbey).
