Latest News: Hill Country Writer’s League Presents Joe O’Connell

February 25, 2008

On Thursday, February 28, the Hill Country Writer’s League will host a book reading for Joe O’Connell, author of Evacuation Plan, a novel from the hospice. In 2001, O’Connell was chosen to spend time at Hospice Austin’s Christopher House and tell the stories of the terminally ill briefly housed there. Evacuation Plan tells the story of a young screenwriter who enters the hospice searching for his next plot idea, but he discovers much more than that- about himself and about the people he encounters at the hospice.

Through May 2008, The Hill Country Writer’s League meets the fourth Thursday of each month at the ACC Cypress Creek campus in Cedar Park.
