Join the Library Shop SD at the San Diego Central Library @ Joan Λ Irwin Jacobs Common to celebrate the release of "More Everything Forever." This event will be located in the Shiley Suite on the 9th floor. This author event includes a conversation, Q&A, and the opportunity to get your book signed. RSVP required. Adam Becker is a science journalist with a PhD in astrophysics, and he has a bone to pick with the pseudo-scientific claims of some noted tech moguls. Join Library Shop SD for a fascinating and empowering author talk, as Dr. Becker presents "More Everything Forever: AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley’s Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity." When figures like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Sam Altman make big claims about science and the future of humanity, it’s tempting to take them at their word — but beneath those big claims about AI, “earning to give,” and space travel, closer examination often reveals a blend of junk science, cultish mania, and political power grabs. Are they driving us toward the future, or steering the world off-course? Books may be purchased through Library Shop SD's event link. All proceeds support the San Diego Public Library.

¡Qué onda, friends! In this special bonus edition of Port of Entry, we're bringing you the story of Charles Glaubitz and Giancarlo Ruiz—two compadres from the Tijuana-San Diego border region who recently collaborated on a graphic novel titled "The Fracture." We dive into how this decades-long bromance made this comic book happen. And... we're doing it a little differently this time. Drumroll please Introducing Port of Entry Shorts: short video capsules that bring our cross-border stories to life in a fresh new way—through video! To kick off this brand-new format, we're starting with two videos: one featuring Charles, the other starring Giancarlo. These capsules originally premiered last fall at our live event, and they're part of a special five-episode bundle that includes this bonus episode, plus a two-part release (Part 1 & Part 2) capturing our live event itself. We hope you enjoy this five-episode bonanza! ¡Nos vemos pronto!

“Hybrid” writing is becoming part of main stream literature. This lively class will explore unusual, interesting forms of writing–ideal for writers of both poetry and prose. Each week will focus on one experimental form. Craft lessons will introduce each form, and we will read aloud and discuss several examples. Prompts will allow students to practice and experiment with that week’s form, and sharing will be encouraged but not required. Additionally, each class will include opportunities and considerations for publication submission. Classes may be purchased individually or as a group. Ideal for anyone looking for a safe, supportive environment to try on new forms and expand one’s writing!
