On Thursday: In the registration line (morning)
(afternoon) at the High Museum (bad me! but I’m addicted to art museums!)
(evening) Probably going to the Ahsahta Press Reading that night, so I can meet the lovely and talented Kate Greenstreet! And possibly some other parties.
On Friday:
Book signing at the Steel Toe Books table at the AWP Bookfair (I think table # 64) with Mary Biddinger from 1 PM to 2 PM. Bring your fancy pens!
From 8 PM to 10 PM, Reading at the Frock You Event at the Django in the Belly Bar. Be there or be square! So many many good poets are going to read. I’m looking forward to meeting them!
On Saturday:
(day)Yes, I’m working the booth at Pacific University. Come ask questions, or bring me a snack! Or just hang around and look cool. I’m not picky.
(night) If I’m still alive after booth duty, I’m going to the No Tell Books party-reading deal.
PS Thanks for your kind inquiries re: my aunt. She is doing better and is expected to leave the hospital in another day or two. Meanwhile, my mom and her son and husband whirl-cleaned her house while she was away. Hope that will help her breathing problems too!
