Woke up to a nice surprise – a poem from The Robot Scientist’s Daughter, “Advice from The Robot Scientist’s Daughter” up on Verse Daily today. Thanks, Verse Daily!
Also, if you’re out and about today, consider stopping by Parkplace Books in Kirkland tonight about 7 PM, because I’ll be reading from the new book there, along with Keith Moul. There’s also an open mike. It’s usually a pretty small reading series, and the bookstore is very cute, so I’d love to see you there!
And, if you’re wondering how to up your writer’s game over the summer, I’ve got a post over at the Gailey and Davio Writers’ Services blog on five ways to do just that!
