Tamale Hut Cafe is proud to present Alice Liddell as our Featured Reader on June 23rd
Alice, aka Lauren A.R. Masterson, graduated from Columbia College of Chicago with a degree in Fiction Writing. During her college days, she began working as a freelance model eventually making it her full-time profession after graduating. She toured nationally, met scores of creative people, and had many adventures. After retiring from modeling, and experiencing a divorce, Alice felt the drain of her creativity. But after finding a loving and supporting community she began exploring her writing talent and art again. Alice is now a regular in the local Chicago writing communities and is dedicated to enhancing her craft.
The evening begins at 7:00 when Alice will read from her new book Love of the Sea. Afterward, we’ll open the mic for anyone else who would like to share. As always, there is no cover. Tamale Hut — Supporting the Arts!
bulk of which can be found in his collected poems. His current output includes several short stories, a novelette, novella, and two full length novels, all self-published and available on Amazon. Between those two periods of literary creation, he’s worked as a printer, a graphic designer, a photographer, and at several other trades better left unmentioned. During that time he also managed to marry someone who turned out to be his biggest cheerleader, raise several dogs, and to settle into a comfortable life of suburban tranquility. His most fervent wish is that he live long enough to write down all the things currently swirling around in his tempestuous head, and that a few discerning souls find his output entertaining, maybe even enlightening.
