So, yeah. I'm not officially at AWP this year, even though it's in nearby Boston. No, I got it into my head that I'll not take the week off from work and just go to side events and such. Naturally, I am ridiculously envious of all the goodness I'm hearing trickling out of the conference.
It's not all bad news, though: I caught an amazing reading last night that included Patricia Smith, Lauren Alleyne, Daemond Arrindell, Jan Beatty, Sara
Brickman, Tyehimba Jess, Angel Nafis, Glenis Redmond, Jon Sands, Tim Seibles and Anis Mojgani. If I'm forgetting someone, I apologize, but that was a HELL of a lot of awesome on one stage.
Friday night, Lea and I will be attending the Trio House Press release party for poets David Groff, Iris Jamahl Dunkle, and Matt Mauch, also featuring readings by Michael Waters and Ross Gay: Friday, March 8, 7-9PM, Old South Church, 645 Boylston Street, Boston.
Saturday, Lea and I will be reading at the Write Bloody Publishing table, at Table R12, at the AWP Bookfair at 11 a.m.! (Later in the day will be readings by Mindy Nettifee, Jeanann Verlee, Buddy Wakefield and Megan Falley!) Saturday also happens to be the day that the bookfair is open to the public!
And then, the monstrosity:
