This podcast is going to be a decorum-be-damned entrance into understanding Shakespeare’s stages (for there are many) and all the players on it. We will be delving into the ever-pressing question: Why Shakespeare? Or, sometimes: Why, Shakespeare?!

Finding Possibility: A Literary Legacy

Are you an author? Do you want to be? Listen up for tips and how to find a writer community as we talk with Charles Martin about his new book and the foundation and future of Literati Press.

With a dismal education ranking, Oklahoma can feel like a literary desert but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Oklahoma City has become a bookstore oasis for book lovers with many independent bookstores each with an identity of its very own. And now, we can boast the first bookstore in the state that is publicly owned by a co-op of writers and readers. Charles Martin, founder and creative director of Literati Press, is stepping aside as owner to promote the legacy and longevity of the beloved Paseo bookstore. As both an avid reader and writer, Martin will still be a big part of Literati.

In fact, he just published a new novella In a Town Where All Things Are Possible. This book is a delightful mystery filled with hope and, of course, possibility, but possibility comes with a price. If you are looking for all the answers, keep looking. True to life, this book brings more questions than answers, but they are questions that are worth pondering and stories that continue on long after the last page. If you are looking for a present, preparing for the holidays, or just love a great book (and love it even more when it’s signed), signed books will always be the way to a book lover’s heart. Charles Martin will be signing his magical book during the Paseo First Friday event THIS Friday, November 7th and next month on December 5th.

The arts are under attack, and buying books from independent bookstores is a great way to show your support and fight back.
