Purchased tickets yesterday to see Jonathan Lethem (4/12) and David Sedaris (4/22) coming to town thanks to the Portland Arts & Lectures series. Writer bums know, hobnobbing with other literary folk is good for our health. So I culled some event calendar info.
But first, EL Doctorow's reminder: "Planning to write is not writing. Outlining, researching, talking to people about what you're doing, none of that is writing. Writing is writing." Thanks for the reminder, EL.
Some Portland literary event calendars:
Powell's Books upcoming events
Literary Arts upcoming events
Willamette Week ("words" on homepage under "more things to do...")
Oregon Live (choose "literary" from event menu)
Borders (choose downtown from "store locator")
Craigslist (general events may include readings)
Join the journey of struggling literary artists.
our mantra
We write. We write daily. We write professionally. Now on with the publishing.

Lethem and Sedaris. Sweet. But you just missed Gaitskill and Saunders (or did you?). Mr. NPR Puzzle Master is also coming soon. We love Literary Arts.
