Along with Kingston Writers’ Studio and Longreads, Vol.1 Brooklyn is pleased to be one of the sponsors of Should I Stay or Should I Go?, one of the Bookends events for this year’s Brooklyn Book Festival.

New York City is increasingly a difficult place to love—and to leave. We’re inviting writers from both in-state, out of state, upstate, and downstate to tell five-minute stories about the dealbreakers that have led to their departures, or their commitment to never leave (yet…!).

Featuring Jen Doll, Pilot Viruet, Ryan Chapman, Talia Lavin, Will Hermes, Cory Nakasue, & more!

This event will take place at Housing Works Bookstore Cafe (126 Crosby Street, NYC) on September 17th, beginning at 7 pm. Facebook RSVP here.
