Two upcoming events of note: the
South Asian Literary Theater and Arts Festival in Washington D.C., scheduled for October 1-2, 2005 (it's free!), and
Kriti, an exciting conference sponsored by
DesiLit November 10-13, 2005 in Chicago. Children's authors at these events include
Uma Krishnaswami,
Anjali Banerjee, and
Pooja Makhijani. (I OD'ed on links today ... Enjoy!)

Why won't you be there?
The organizers of both events graciously extended invitations, but what with the two books I have to finish this fall and several other appearances, I couldn't squeeze either event into my calendar. Sounds glam and busy, doesn't it? I could also have said, "What with piles of laundry to be washed and countless meals to be made around here ..." I do have a pang about missing these great events, though, especially as I'd love to take the bhangra lesson they're offering in Chicago. I'm bhangra-challenged.
