I am honored to again be one of the San Diego’s Central Library's guest readers during the Banned Books Read-a-thon on Friday Sept. 26th from 10:00AM to 4:00PM in the lobby. Open to the public, you are welcome to come and listen to guest readers during this free event. The new Central library and its staff will participate in this popular national annual literary fest  http://www.ala.org/bbooks/bannedbooksweek  after a short hiatus due to construction completion at its new site.  My reading will take place around the 3:40 PM time slot.                                                   Delores Fisher    I usually read prose excerpts from Maya Angelou’s Why the Caged Bird Sings, however, I am hoping to do a staged reading of several of Ms. Angelou’s writings  later this year to commemorate her life’s work. My book choice this year is poetry from poet and educator Nikki Giovanni’s banned book of poems “My House.” For those of you who may not already know . . . .
