An Evening with Elizabeth Skurnick This reading was the Caketrain-sponsored event for the 2005 412 Creative Nonfiction Festival. Immediately before the event there was a large, frightening thunderstorm, but a sizable crowd still managed to gather — spirits, one might say, were not “dampened” (yuk yuk…yuck).
