The Deep Water Literary Festival takes place June 21 through June 23. Founded in 2018, the festival promotes community engagement, performance, and the sharing of literary ideas in Narrowsburg, NY.
As part of Radio Catskill’s media partnership with Deep Water, Tim Bruno spoke to Nana Brew-Hammond and Sara Hosey, two authors with local links appearing at the festival discussing the challenges, and rewards, of writing for children and young adults.
