Hollie Hardy’s Lions Like Us Book Launch Party
Published in June by local small press Red Light Lit, Hollie Hardy’s second full-length poetry collection, Lions Like Us, follows 2014 survival compilation How to Take a Bullet with tales of love, sex, and relationships. Following a cross-country book tour, Hardy celebrates locally by reading excerpts of the book alongside fellow Austin scribes KB Brookins, C. Prudence Arceneaux, Dale Bridges, Heidi Kasa, S.C. Says, and Red Light Lit event curator Loria Mendoza. Tickets to the event are free, but any starving artist will tell you: If you’re wine drunk and feeling the love, buy a copy or two.
