Following up our earlier story about the Philadelphia Fantastic Reading Series looking for a new home, coordinator Oz Fontecchio announces success:
I am delighted to announce that starting in May when our guest will be Jonathan Maberry and continuing onwards, all Philadelphia Fantastic author reading and signings will be taking place at Robin’s Bookstore located in Center City Philadelphia at 108 S. 13th Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on the second floor. The events will continue to be on the fourth Friday of each month starting at 7:30PM. In addition to all the things you expect from a Philadelphia Fantastic event, our new host, Larry Robins, is finalizing arrangements to webcast all of our events as they occur.
Robin’s Bookstore is the oldest independent bookstore in the area, having been founded by Larry Robin’s grandfather over 70 years ago. In my meeting with Larry Robins today, he demonstrated a genuine knowledge, understanding of and caring for the literature of the imagination. I could not be more pleased that Philadelphia Fantastic will.be associated with his bookstore in the future.
Come join us this Friday, 25 April, as Gregory Frost helps us say goodbye to Barnes and Noble, and be sure to be on hand next month as a bright new day dawns at Robin’s Bookstore.
