Queertopia 2 and AWP in Seattle

On Wednesday, I travel to Seattle, WA for the AWP conference. Ten thousand writers–poets, essayists, novelists, fiction writers, reviewers, and other wordsmiths–gathered in one city for four days of conference going, book fairing, off site readings, drinking, and general merriment. I will be there starting Thursday morning. My primarily hangout will be the table I am operating for Sinister Wisdom in partnership with A Midsummer Night’s Press. We are table N3. If you are attending, stop by and say hi. (If you are in Seattle, the book fair is open to the general public on Saturday, after much brouhaha, so stop on by for free on Saturday.)

On Friday night, I am participating in not one but two off site readings. First, at 6 pm, you can see me at Sibling Rivalry Press’s offsite reading, Everyone and Their Mother. The reading is at the Nitelite Lounge in Seattle. Join me.

Then I will high tale it from the Nitelite Lounge to Barnes and Nobles and read as a part of Queertopia 2. More information about the reading is here:

Outside of these formal commitments, I will be hanging out with my publishing buddy, hopefully cooking up some new ideas for the next year. I’m looking forward to a fun conference and to a good solid eight hours of travel which will include some great reading and writing, I hope!
