Event Details

Come have homemade pie and hear author Michelle Rae Anderson read from her book First Draft: The Miracle in July Web Series! This private, limited capacity, intimate affair will be held in the author's home, and brunchy nibbles and libations will be provided. Admission is free, but donations are much appreciated!


 

Overview of the book:

Scheduled for release in June, 2011, this book gets to the heart of the work-in-progress storytelling experiment The Miracle in July, the first draft of Michelle Rae Anderson‘s experiential semi-autobiography about love, loss and letting go. Short essays by the author are woven throughout the book and detail what it took to consistently meet brutal, self-imposed deadlines, write publicly about intimate family and love affairs, how real-time reader input affected the writing, and the meaning behind the media embedded in the chapters. First Draft: The Miracle in July Web Series, is a 300+ page book that captures the tough-love first draft words found in the online web series, plus lots of the balls-out confessionals you’ve come expect from the author…and soon you can read it without an Internet connection.

 


 

Synopsis of the story in The Miracle in July:

"All that’s left before production of the movie The Miracle in July can begin—a visceral tale based on Michelle Ray’s bestselling novel—is Ray’s blessing on the final edits to the screenplay. But Ray has a secret: the yearning lovers separated by time and space; the father’s preventable death; the estranged sister, dying from her hard life’s choices; the terrible, life-altering accident—they’re all characters and events in Ray’s very real life story. Suddenly realizing that over the years she has so skillfully fictionalized the most important parts of her life that she isn’t sure what is real anymore, Ray leaves her home in Portland, Oregon and journeys to Denmark to re-examine the artifacts from her past, and to tell the true story of impossible love for the first and last time."
