So now there's a stack of these in Porter Square Books:



The reading went really well. nineweaving's new paperback is very classy. Afterward derspatchel presented me with a hardcover reprint of Esther Averill's Jenny and the Cat Club (1973) and sairaali gave me a stunningly adorable hand-knitted nudibranch. I got to talk to schreibergasse for more than half an hour between job interviews and audioboy took the picture above. My book is sitting between something with a cat on it and the paperback of a novel I have been waiting for.

Evening: success.

I saw the reading in PSB's latest e-mail newsletter, and promptly cursed because James had got us tickets, months ago, to see Vienna Teng in Somerville last night.

Vienna Teng last night was a very popular choice! I hope it was a good concert. You can come to the next reading!

Is the next reading at this point theoretical, or has it already been scheduled? If already scheduled, please do let me know when and where :)

(On that note: I sent you, April, and Gillian an email a handful of days back re: reading-ish things. At this point, even just chiming in with yea / nay interest from proposed parties is what Ali is looking for from us, seeing as we'd be looking to schedule something for late summer or autumn at this point. I do not know if you have been in that gallery, but it's a lovely little space, and I'm thrilled to have found someone in this city who seems keen to have poets on hand doing their thing!)

Theoretical, but I want to make one happen. I don't usually read outside conventions and I enjoy it.

Done!
