Writers Adam Brodsky of Cleveland and former Mahoning Valley resident Liz Hill will be featured at Lit Youngstown’s next First Wednesday Reader Series event.

Hill is the co-author of “The Last Brass Ring” and three other novels for teens. A co-founder of Lit Youngstown who lived in the area for several years, Hill now divides her time between western North Carolina and Jalisco, Mexico.

Brodsky has been writing since the late 1980s. His work tends to be language-focused, meditative and riddle-like in its approach to exploring life’s mysteries.

The reading starts at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Trophy Room at Westside Bowl, 2617 Mahoning Ave., Youngstown. Admission is free. The Trophy Room is in the basement and only accessible by stairs.

Lit Youngstown is a literary arts nonprofit with programs for writers, readers and those who love a good story. For more information, go to www.LitYoungstown.org.
