Origin stories can also refer to myths and narratives for how the world began\, how creatures and plants came into existence\, and why we’re here. Or\, for mere mortals\, origin stories serve as a starting point for identity metamorphosis; the self transformed by a series of firsts—first love\, first loss\, and so on. Each writer will read personal work that speaks to the theme. \nThis event is funded in part by the City of Seattle and the Office of Arts and Culture as part of Jessica Mooney’s City Artist Project. \n\n \nSarah Galvin is the author of a book of poems\, The Three Einsteins (Poor Claudia\, 2014) and a book of essays\, The Best party of Our Lives (Sasquatch 2015.)
