Even More Exciting Things Going On!
I know ya’ll are sick of me talking about all this stuff I’m doing this month. Well, it’s almost over…give me a few more days…
Wednesday, Octboer 18 – My former professor (and Wesleyan author) Don Bogen will be reading at Open Books at 7:30. Be there or square or something!
Thursday, October 19 – My good friends Kathleen Flenniken and Susan Rich are reading from their respective new books at Soul Food Books in Redmond. Again, be there, be square, etc.
Saturday, October 21 – I’m reading with fellow Steel Toe author Martha Silano at Village Books in Bellingham at 7:30 PM. If you live near Bellingham, come say hi! It’s my first time in town and I’m dying to know all about it.
And apres ca: a month of rest. Except for school and work. But no poetry readings. Til November 19.
Ooh, and Jessa from Bookslut has confirmed that I’m reading with them in Chicago in April. I’m excited!

You are ridiculously, but deservedly busy. Enjoy the ride AND your down time afterward!

See you Saturday!

You rock! It was great meeting you this Saturday. I’m sorry I couldn’t stay longer, I live way out in the boonies and the fog was rolling in. I’ll let you know about my UW date.
Anyway, that was a fantastic reading and your poems kick butt!

Thanks Oliver! No, that was some serious Northwest Fog. Just like in the X-Files.
It was great meeting you too – I’m looking forward to your upcoming reading!
