Deborah Mcdermott at seacoastonline.com has this very interesting slice of news in an artile titled, Writers on a New England Stage hosts author Margaret Atwood.
.
PORTSMOUTH -- The stars came out Tuesday night for Canadian author Margaret Atwood, who was at the Music Hall as part of Writers on a New England Stage. Mega-best-selling authors Stephen King and Dan Brown both came to hear Atwood and were back stage afterward to mingle during an author's reception.

.
Atwood let the news slip when she first appeared on stage. She said King was somewhere in the audience, to an audible intake of breath from the near-capacity crowd. And she said she also heard Brown might be attending, adding that she read “both his books” and she knew at the time that the lawsuit for plagiarism against him wouldn't succeed. Next up for the Writers on a New England Sage series is NY Times best selling author Simon Winchester on Nov. 8, to discuss his latest work of nonfiction, “Atlantic.”
