I have happy and exhausted, back from New Orleans and the always wonderful Saints and Sinners Literary Festival. I saw old friends including "Bob" and "My Movie" publisher Jameson Currier, "Joey" editor Jerry Wheeler, writer and panel moderator extraordinaire Michael Thomas Ford, Miss Bea Oblivious herself (Felice Picano) with excellent career advice, YA author Louis Ceci, masters of the erotic Bill Holden and Dale Chase, warm and fuzzy bear editor Ron Suresha, writer and blogger 'Nathan Burgoine, and many more dear people and wonderful writers. As for the city itself, beignets and coffee with chicory at Cafe Beignet, ice cream at Creole Creamery, yummy sandwiches and salads at Satsuma, wine, hummus and music outside at Bacchanal, funky music at The Spotted Cat, Kajun's Pub, the Freret Publiq House and on the street, colorful gay toys at Bourbon Pride, and the list just goes on. And I got to read from "Joey." They laughed a lot! More on Nola and Saints and Sinners in the next post!
