    Wordstock is a veritable Tour de Strayed this year. One of Portland's most celebrated writers, Cheryl Strayed, will share the stage with fellow book club rock star Ayana Mathis Thursday night for the festival opener, and she'll chair a noon Saturday panel about lyrics and literature. We dug into the Think Out Loud Archive for Dave Miller's conversations with Strayed. Here's a taste of what we're cooking up for this week's show. Watch for the full show Saturday.
