The contribution of the Literary Reading Series

In the mid-1980s, when the Corpus Christi City Council passed a 2-percent hotel-motel tax to pay for new arts programs in the city, I approached five friends and asked them to help me start a reading series.

“This is one of the oldest and, I know now, one of the best reading series in the country, and I was honored to be invited. Then I was delighted to discover that the people who run it and attend the events are genuine and smart readers, kind, big-hearted, and a lot of fun to spend a couple of days with on the Gulf Coast. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had as a visiting writer, anywhere.”
