Hub City Writers Project to hold 20th anniversary celebration, May 8–10

It's been 20 years since three Spartanburg writers came together in a Downtown Spartanburg coffeeshop to dream up what would eventually become Hub City Writers Project. What started as something HCWP Executive Director Betsy Teter calls a "one season lark" has since grown into a nationally acclaimed independent publisher about to release its 70th title, and to celebrate their 20 years of outstanding place-based literary leadership in Spartanburg, the group has planned a weekend-long "Homecoming Extravaganza," May 8–10. On today's podcast, we're spending some time talking with Teter to get the details on the weekend's festivities and also taking a deeper look at HCWP, from its history and current place in Downtown Spartanburg's cultural landscape, to the organization's future as a growing regional publishing icon.
