Book Launch for Bigger by Ren Cedar Fuller
Details
Join Seattle author Ren Cedar Fuller and a panel of Hugo House alums to celebrate our city’s center for writing. Ren took her first of many creative writing classes at Hugo House at the start of the pandemic, and she credits inspirational instructors and the writing friends she met at Hugo House with developing her craft.
In her debut book, Ren explores how loving people who are different from her has expanded her world. She ponders her father’s neurodiversity, her child coming out as transgender, a disability that left her unable to cry, and her immigrant mother’s Alzheimer’s—which carried her back to childhood. Bigger, a memoir-in-essays, won the 2024 Autumn House Press Nonfiction Prize .
A book-signing will follow the panel discussion, and the house bar will be open to serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
