Writers Read: Audrey Jiggetts, Christine Benvenuto, Tom Skarzynski

Writers Read is a monthly opportunity for an audience to come and listen to local writers in an intimate environment. Each second Wednesday of the month, three writers read from their work, followed by a discussion facilitated by Lindy Whiton. These discussions have been eye opening, touching, and inspiring. Audiences have left the venue ready to write.

Audrey Jiggetts is a twenty-year-old writer from Northampton, MA. Amidst getting a degree in English and Africana studies from Smith College, she is working on a novel and dedicating her life to her cat, Mary Anne. You can find her flash fiction and poetry in BULL, Nowhere Girl Collective, and Sunstroke Magazine, or at her Substack @audreyjig.

Christine Benvenuto is the author of two works of nonfiction published by St. Martin’s Press, and her short stories, essays, and articles have appeared in many newspapers, magazines and anthologies. Her plays are performed in venues around the country. She is a member of the Women’s Work Full Length Play Lab at New Perspectives Theatre in NYC, where two of her plays are under development.

Tom Skarzynski has been writing for over half a century. His work has appeared in The Springfield Journal, and several anthologies. He recently published his first novella, Journey to Druidwood, and his first poetry book, Echoes of Reflections.
