You'd think I could tell you what's going to happen at tonight's Hugo Literary Series event, considering that Sherman Alexie, Michelle Tea, and David Schmader all have close ties to The Stranger (Alexie and Schmader have weekly columns, Tea is a sometime contributor), but Alexie's being very quiet about what he's going to read and Tea and Schmader refused to answer the question on Hugo House's website. Mysterious. There will also be a reading by Hugo House New Works Competition winner Ben Blum and music by Stranger Associate Editor Emeritus Sean Nelson. (Town Hall Seattle, 1119 Eighth Ave, 322-7030, www.brownpapertickets.com. 7:30 pm, $15 students/seniors, $25 general.)
