We have books on the brain today and wanted to share some links that might be helpful for anyone looking for a few more books to read instead of beach reads – think burgh reads. Scroll down for info about how to win a $30 certificate to Joseph Beth Books.
Blogging Books About the Burgh

Last month, OpenThread organized the first Small Press Festival here in Pittsburgh. OpenThread is a regional arts collective that has been working on events to connect other writers and artists in Western PA. The Small Press Festival was a month long celebration of the smaller publications here in Pittsburgh including a weekend expo of local small press publications.
Filmmaker Ben Hernstrom has put together a nice little video about the festival for Keystone Edge (a sister site to Pop City Media that focuses on the entire state of Pennsylvania).
