On Monday, June 2, at 6:00 p.m., in the Easton branch of the Talbot County Free Library, author Amy Abrams will share her techniques—including angles, research, interviewing, tone, character, and elements of description—that have made her a successful writer of articles for magazines, newspapers, and the web. Abrams, a former publishing executive, has authored over 200 stories in prominent publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Art in America, and Village Voice Media. Recently relocated to Talbot County from New York City, Abrams has appeared on TV and radio programs, including NPR and SiriusXM. She has lectured about publishing, art, and media to university, museum, and writing conference audiences across America. She has two new books out: a novel, The Cage and The Key, and a 212-page illustrated coffee table book, Schenck in the 21st Century: The Myth of the Hero and the Truth of America, which won the 2013 US Literary Award for Fine Arts.
