February 10, 2013 (San Diego)--The San Diego Public Library's 47th Annual Local Authors Exhibit: The Library is going to display it in the exhibit, which will run the entire month of February 2013 in the lobby of the Central Library downtown.

February 10 (Sunday, 11:00 am to 1:00 pm) — The Chino Farm and the Good Earth/Great Chefs Series are honored to announce the next chef in the series, Nancy Singleton Hachisu, and her newly released cookbook Japanese Farm Food.

February 13, (Wednesday, 1:30 pm) — Friends of Older Gays Writing Group meets every second Wednesday of the month in the Library of The LBGT Center on Center Street at University Ave. in Hillcrest. Everyone has a story in them, so if you want to learn interesting things about other members, stretch your creativity, or simply scratch that writing itch, we invite you to join us. We like to keep the group small and intimate, but we can always add more sections.

The FOG Writers Group consists of members who explore everything from fiction to poetry and anything in between that causes the composition juices to flow. We have two or three memoirists, a non-fiction writer producing fascinating and thought-provoking general interest essays and articles, and one member who leads us by spooky ink trail into the paranormal, opening up “the other side” of dark mystery. Two members have books in the works, one writes for pleasure and documentation of the past, and another pens subjects of current or historical interest. We encompass published writers, beginners, and those who simply live to write.

February 13, (Wednesday, 4:30 pm) — UCSD's New Writing Series is pleased to announce A Reading from BOB PERELMAN. The reading will take place in the UCSD Visual Arts Facility (VAF) Performance Space.
