Oh, man! I neglected to provide the details that I promised before I would post anon. I think I was thinking—if I was thinking at all—that, since the two of you who I know actually visit this page with any kind of frequency (hi Jess! hi Eric!) don’t actually live anywhere near Kingston, would it [...]
At KMOCA. Details anon. Please come!
I don’t know why I haven’t mentioned this before in this space—oh no wait, I totally know why, it’s because we’ve been so completely insanely busy for months now looking for a place and then finding a place and then moving a hundred miles with us and the cat and every last one of our [...]
Two upcoming events: 1) I will be reading with the great and daring fiction writer Joshua Harmon (his first book, Quinnehtukqut, is just out from Starcherone) on Friday, May 18, at 8:00pm. The reading is being hosted by Paragraph, and will take place in a health club on 14th Street. 2) The very next evening, [...]
First, as an introduction, our inimitable One Story cocktail hour and reading series host Hannah Tinti gave a dramatic reading of our Styles section announcement (thus alleviating all my capsule bio concerns). Then I read (and sang) the last five and a half pages of the first chapter of Emily‘s awesome first novel, The Testament [...]
I’ve been wondering if I should update my bio on the One Story Web site for the special “just married” edition of the One Story Cocktail Hour and Reading Series that my wife and I are doing this coming Friday. I originally wrote it to appear at the end of issue #74, accompanying my story [...]
I’ll be reading for One Story this coming Saturday, June 10, at Happy Ending (the bar, I mean, not Amanda‘s brilliant eponymous reading series); it’s the triumphant return of the Legion of Lit Mags, after the Magathon, so you could theoretically go to both, as well as the CLMP‘s Lit Mag Fair at Housing Works [...]
I will be representing the most excellent journal Quick Fiction in LITERARY DEATH MATCH III, the third installment of a new, competitive reading series, presented by Opium Magazine. I will be going head to head in a furious, violent, heady, orgiastic scrum of letters with representatives of McSweeney’s, Nerve, and Me Three. I am thirsty [...]
I’m reading in one week at Cheryl B.‘s Atomic [N.B. Link removed; no longer extant] series, at Lucky 13 in Park Slope! Sunday, April 2, at 7:00pm! With David Webber and Francine Witte! 273 13th St. at 5th Ave., Brooklyn! Free! Please come! This will be fun. And look, my bio [N.B. Link removed; no [...]
1) Remember how back in December I mentioned I’d be reading at Happy Ending on February 22 as part of a prurient and tawdry Homewrecker evening with Susannah Breslin [N.B. Link removed; no longer extant], Christine Hamm, Marty McConnell, and Felicia Sullivan? Well, 2) Some of us (or maybe all five of us?—I’m not totally [...]
1) My brilliant sister (two Bessies! two Obies!) is performing at St. Ann’s Warehouse on Wednesday, December 7. 2) I am reading on Sunday, December 11, at the Sunday Salon. 3) Cynthia and I are covering ’80s pop songs once again on Wednesday, December 14, at the Happy Ending Reading Series. Expect Bon Jovi, Journey, [...]
Neither of these things is posted yet as of this writing, but I believe it’s safe to announce that I will be 1) reading on Sunday, December 11, at the Sunday Salon, and then a few days later, on December 14, 2) covering ’80s pop songs once again at the Happy Ending Reading Series with [...]
I’ll be reading in two weeks at the Earshot reading series at Cafe Ludlow, Friday May 13. More info., here. ($6 admission, yes, but it gets you a free drink.)
Graduating NYU creative writing program MFA students reading, Thursday, 4/28, 7pm. 25 of us, 3 minutes each. Free and open to the public. More info., here.
