SUMMARY:Literary Death Match 61st Event
DESCRIPTION:Literary Death Match returns to SF and the Elbo Room for our record 61st event for a duel fundraising effort\, as proceeds from the show will support our all-new web show — LDM Book Report\, and Lit Camp is raffling off book-skewed prizes to raise money for scholarships to their annual writer’s conference. \nWhat is Literary Death Match? Four writers read their own work for five minutes or less\, and are then judged by three all-star judges.
