“Stories, But Shorter” has it’s first live show at the Last Bookstore in Downtown Los Angeles with two great short story writers! Xuan Juliana Wang reads “Future Cat” from her upcoming book “Home Remedies”, and Matt Sumell reads “Toast” from his book, “Making Nice”. Host Cassi Jerkins, producer Jeremy Schmidt and the audience ask questions after each short story.. We have a great discussion about using humor to deal with the hardships of life, the uncertainty and agony of transitioning from young adult to adult, and grief.
