Haven't done readings in the neighbourhood in a while, but this week I have three:

I'll be reading some poetry, a rant or two, and maybe a little bitta fiction. Beware: there's an open mic!
A READING FOR KIDS
Wednesday, May 10, 4 pm
This one's for kids 8-15!
I've written some actual kids' poems for the occasion. And I think I'll read a few of my poems from The Thing in Exile, a book of poems by Steven Feldman, Mark Laba, and me that was published when we were 16 years old. Watch out, Dennis Lee!

Who knows what I'll be reading? Do you know? I probably haven't written it yet.
I hope to see you at one of these events!
Over and out.
You were in New Denver? How interesting. I just wrote a comparison paper on Steveston--Marlatt's and Livesay's accounts of the forced internment of those Japanese-Canadians after the bombing of Pearl Harbour. Next we meet, you'll have to tell me if you felt any remnants, although I'm sure it's been so long now. Marlatt's experience was in the early 70's, and then not in New Denver, in Steveston. But perhaps there are still surviving old shacks? How interesting.
