Literary Night: 3 Writers in Search of a Room

Local literary maven Donna Decker has wrangled a trio of prose writers for this month's literary venture: Susan Cerulean, Kathleen Laufenberg, and Bucky McMahon.

Susan Cerulean is a writer, naturalist, and activist who divides her time between Tallahassee and Indian Pass. Her 2015 nature memoir Coming to Pass: Florida’s Coastal Islands in a Gulf of Change (University of Georgia Press) won the Gold Award for Florida Nonfiction by Florida Book Awards in 2016. She writes a regular column at www.comingtopass.com.

Kathleen Laufenberg has been a features writer at the Tallahassee Democrat, a science writer at the MagLab, an environmental writer at Florida Environments, an editor at Apalachee Review, a writing coach at the Florida Flambeau, a teacher, a waitress, a worker bee at Sunland Hospital and a lifelong dog walker, animal advocate and connoisseur of fine chocolate. Her stories have appeared in newspapers, magazines and literary journals. She’s currently at work on a novel called “Loving Annie.”

Bucky McMahon is a Tallahassee writer and sculptor. As a graduate student studying writing at FSU he wrote a humor column, Barmadillo, for the Tallahassee Democrat. His essays and Journalism have appeared in Esquire (where he was a contributing editor), Outside Magazine, GQ, Men's Journal, and other national magazines.

No cover, but bring some cash for the book sellers (and a drink or two at the bar)!
