The Reading was a success! Everyone who read was really talented, and the audience responded well to my poems, despite the fact the mic was at really awkward angle and I had to speak out of the corner of my mouth and turn my head sideways to be able to read my poems. Unfortunately, I didn't get anyone's last name that I read with, so I can't pimp them here.

I also got a new writing gig with Duponis, which is a art crit site, opening in September. I wrote an essay about writing as therapy.
