City Lights Reading

Well, hello everyone. I didn't get it together in time to announce the reading on Monday night at City Lights, so herewith, a report on such.

I spent Valentine's Day reading with Dodie Bellamy, Colter Jacobsen, Donal Mosher, Aaron Nielsen & Zakary Szymanski. It was also Dodie's birthday, and so I hope we all celebrated her duly.

Dodie's The Letters of Mina Harker has just been re-released by University of Wisconsin, and I have a review of it in Bitch and an interview with Dodie in Lodestar Quarterly. (Patience...this is my first blog entry, and I haven't learned how to hyperlink.)

Anyhoo, it was the perfect blood-red Valentine's treat to hear Dodie read from Mina, hear Colter, Donal, Aaron and Zak, and offer some of my Letters to Kelly Clarkson as one of the opening acts. Afterward, I snuck away from the crowd to have the more traditional Val Day with my better half in the Inner Sunset. It was rainy and bright.

More news soon...xoxo julia
