Like children, we walked around, marveled at the different Iranian businesses lining Wilshire Boulevard, ate Iranian food, and bought books.
I was so honored to be invited to PEN’s Emerging Voices 2011 Welcome Party, where Azarin and her fellow-winners were going to read pieces of their writings and be introduced to the PEN community in Los Angeles.
I got together with Azarin and a couple of other Iranian.com contributors at Persian Square on Wilshire Boulevard.
I was so happy when I learned that my friend, Azarin Sadegh had won the PEN Center USA 2011 Emerging Voices Fellowship. Azarin has been a hard-working writer, who has spent so much energy developing her writing skills over the past several years, taking classes, mustering incredible discipline, and writing, writing, and writing. She wrote a complete book last year, and she is well into writing her second book now. I find that really impressive!
