Nicaragua 2014 Book Tour – San Juan del Sur

On Friday, October 31, I arrived in Nicaragua to begin a book tour that includes Kenneth Morris, author of Unfinished Revolution and Joseph Frazier, author of El Salvador Could Be like that.

I was fortunate enough to spend that day and morning in Granada, where I had a chance to stroll about and take a few photographs—one of my favorite things in the world to do.

At noon the following day, Saturday, November 1, we left for San Juan del Sur, where we would conduct our first roundtable at the bookstore and coffee shop El Gato Negro.

As usual, I had a terrific time talking about the craft. And it was fun listening to my fellow writers’ stories, theories, and ideas.

What has also been enjoyable is to experience a moment in the sun thanks to the article “Silvio Sirias leading Nicaragua literary tour” that appears in The Nicaragua Dispatch.
