A lively, craft-minded panel discussion about how humor and absurdity illuminate our darkest themes. To celebrate the launch of his debut novel, Scott Lambridis joins fellow Bellingham writers David Beaumier, Brittany Micka-Foos, and others from HamLit, in conversation. Together they’ll explore why laughter and lightness belong beside grief and gravity, share brief readings, and invite audience questions. Part craft talk, part celebration of local storytelling, this event promises an evening that’s both thought-provoking and entertaining!
St. Ulphia’s Dead is a darkly comic literary novel that follows two disgraced medical researchers investigating mass psychosis and a series of disappearances on a remote island. As the missing begin to reappear, the boundaries between fact and folklore collapse, and the researchers must confront the island’s mysteries, and their own buried truths.
Scott Lambridis is a Bellingham-based writer and neurobiology lover whose fiction explores the strange edges of perception, time, and consciousness. His work has appeared in Slice, Fence, and The Café Irreal, and he earned his MFA from San Francisco State University. He once ran an indie press, toured with a progressive rock band, tended an olive farm, read a book from every country of the world, and wrote his debut novel during his daughter’s naps in France.

They have worked in the publishing industry and been a member of the Bellingham writing community for the last twelve years, including as the Assistant Publishing Director at Village Books.
