Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids

Dan Misener is a very interesting young man; he does a segment on local CBC radio about social media and technology, and he produces the unforgettable Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids, or GRTTWAK. The event started as a stage show, where grown ups would, indeed, read ... etc. I of course did one with my Paul McCartney love stories before they were in a book, and had a fabulous time. And then they became a CBC radio show, inexplicably cancelled, and then a podcast.

Dan is still producing the shows and has just sent out a new request for readers. Go on - you know you have some brilliantly hilarious poems tucked away somewhere. Go find them.
