Here’s where I’ll be this week – if you’re around, come out and say hi!
Tuesday, October 3 – Bowling Green, Kentucky. Jeannine Hall Gailey is reading from her new book, Becoming the Villainess, at Western Kentucky University at 7 PM, Room 125 in Cherry Hall.
(PS – A short hour’s drive from Nashville, Tennessee!)
Friday, October 6, 2006 – Cincinnati, Ohio. 4 PM – Jeannine Hall Gailey reads from her new book, Becoming the Villainess, at the Elliston Poetry Room in Langsam Library at the University of Cincinnati
Also, there’s a little newspaper article about the readings:

I’m not sure I said all those quotes – especially the last one – in exactly that way, but overall, I thought the writer did a very nice job.
Think good thoughts for me maintaining health – I’m on a couple of antibiotics right now, and struggling to get better from a mean chest/throat/eye infection, and air travel is always iffy for me anyway, I catch everything. Does this happen to anyone else before readings? It’s like your body knows…
Jeannine Hall Gailey served as the second Poet Laureate of Redmond, Washington and the author of Becoming the Villainess, She Returns to the Floating World, Unexplained Fevers, The Robot Scientist’s Daughter, and winner of the Moon City Press Book Prize and SFPA’s Elgin Award, Field Guide to the End of the World. Her latest, Flare, Corona from BOA Editions, was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award. She’s also the author of PR for Poets, a Guidebook to Publicity and Marketing. Her work has been featured on NPR’s The Writer’s Almanac, Verse Daily and The Year’s Best Fantasy and Horror. Her poems have appeared in The American Poetry Review, Poetry, and JAMA.
