Explore these sites and you will find Philip Levine, Lawrence Joseph, Joyce Carol Oates, Terry Blackhawk and many others. The piece on Eastern Market is especially well-written and mentions some lesser known writers like Loren Estleman and Lisa Lenzo

Recommend a writer or artist from Detroit.
My favorites include Lolita Hernandez, Kim Hunter, Kathleen Rashid, Athir Shayota (in New York now), Alise Alousi, Gloria House, Vievee Francis and many others. Detroit's literary life is kicking it. Go to the suburbs and find........lots of shopping plazas, many, many Caribou coffee and Starbuck coffee houses sans poets.
These days, the Detroit scene is vibrant and visual-- the young activists, artists at the Other collective, Ilana/Invincible, and other spoken word artists such as Legacy, Karega, and Omari are grabbing our attention! Katrina Redd, owner of the wonderful ReddApple Gallery (unfortunately no longer open) usually knows what is going on.
Tell me more? whom am I missing?
