This is about process, I think. First, behold my fancy Instagram pictures from yesterday’s Eduardo Galeano event at City Lights Books.

Thanks PJ! I got myself one from a long time ago. I bought it at Eastwind Books in Berkeley. Hey BTW, what time is our October reading at? I want to put it in my author events.
Hey BJ, I got extra copies of 'Thirdest World' for you. Do I send you one now or wait til our October reading? xo, Heathcliff Notes
Tara, thanks for the review. We are going to hit some Berkeley bookstores tonight in search of a copy of Make-Shift!Bryan, yeah there is a Poeta en SF group. As per their description, they're not dedicated exclusively to my book, but to SF Bay Area poetry.
Hey Ms. Barbara Jane! I was just talking to my friend Latasha Diggs last night about "Poeta en San Francisco" so she'll probably be checking it out too. Hope all is well in the West.
you are an A M A Z I N G poet :)
