What do you get when you give three writers only two sentences and twenty minutes? A Story Sprint! Emcee and author Zach Powers will pull two audience-suggested sentences from a hat which will serve as the opening and closing lines for these impromptu tales.

Featured sprinters Hannah Grieco, author of "First Kicking", Then Not, Megan Howell, author of "Softie: Stories", and Michael Don, author of "Partners and Strangers" will then write for their lives. This classic interactive race will include fun writing games for attendees during the Sprint, followed by a reading of the final stories.
