Going down to Portland…
Hey Portland-area friends, if you aren’t doing anything Wednesday night, head out to see me read with Marvin Bell and Josh Stuart at the Central Library. Details:
Where: Portland, Oregon
Central Library, 801 SW 10th Avenue, in the US Bank Room (1st floor.)
When: Wednesday night at 6:30 – early – and they’re selling books before the reading, rather than after, since we have to be out of the library by 8 PM
With Who? Jeannine Hall Gailey, Joshua Stuart and big star poet Marvin Bell

Got back last night around 9 PM after a ten-hour round trip to visit my friends and workshop on the island (really, the Kitsap peninsula.) The poetry and hanging out with bar food appetizers afterwards was worth the grueling drive/ferry trip/ferry lines.
