Louise Hawker of The Nature of Words writes in with this latest:

Benjamin Percy‘s new collection of short stories, Refresh, Refresh, was just released yesterday, so the book will be available for purchase and signing during The Nature of Words. Publishers Weekly had called it the most anticipated book of the fall season. Benjamin will read during the Friday night, 11/2 author reading at the Tower Theatre. He will also teach two writing workshops – all the details are on our website at www.thenatureofwords.org. Benjamin is a Central Oregon native who now teaches writing at Marquette University in Wisconsin.

The author page for him on the NoW site is here, and the NoW workshop schedules are here.

And is it just me, or does the picture of Percy on his website totally look like Vince Vaughn?
