Live Giants 7 Re-do: Mairéad Byrne (with ARob and Stephanie)
The live reading will begin at 10 AM Eastern. To watch, please go to the full screen and chatroom broadcast here at uStream. Normally we embed that stuff but it’s like 9am right now so what the heck. Mairéad will take questions in the chatroom and in comments on this thread, so hang out and fire around.
Her latest book, The Best of (What’s Left of) Heaven is a 208-page collection released by Publishing Genius. Purchases made today get a reduced $10 price and free shipping.
Live Giants #7: Mairéad Byrne
Well, Mairéad’s microphone went kaput, so you only sort of missed her reading. But the book is still available cheap till I decide we’ve made recompense.
Her latest book, The Best of (What’s Left of) Heaven is a 208-page opus just released by Publishing Genius. Purchases made between now and midnight tonight get a reduced $10 price and free shipping.
Reminder: Mairéad Byrne TONIGHT, 9pm EASTERN
Tune in tonight for the seventh installment of Live Giants. The reader will be Mairéad Byrne.
Her latest book, The Best of (What’s Left of) Heaven is a 208-page opus just released by Publishing Genius. Purchases made between now and midnight tonight get a reduced $10 price and free shipping. It was reviewed yesterday at JMWW by Ashlie Kauffman.
Tonight, 9pm EASTERN, come here.
Live Giants #7: Mairéad Byrne
The seventh installment of Live Giants will feature Mairéad Byrne, a va-va-voom poet and professor and all-around great person. She will be the first in the series with an accent.
Her latest book, The Best of (What’s Left of) Heaven, was just released by Publishing Genius.
Her earlier book, Talk Poetry, had me in stitches, but when I saw her read from it in Chicago I was like, what, wait, these prose poems is kinda sad.
Tune in next Thursday, July 29, at 9pm to find out if it will be funny or sad or what-all. No cover.
Live Giants 6: Zachary Schomburg
You missed Zach’s live reading but you can still buy his books.
Live Giants #3, with Joshua Marie Wilkinson
You missed the reading but you can still pick up Joshua’s new book:
Up until about 9 PM on Wednesday night, Selenography will be available for a 25% discount, $15, from Sidebrow Books. I got my copy yesterday, and it is a beautiful thing to hold. Snatch it up.
You can also get Joshua’s book in package deal with the other brand new Sidebrow release by Sandy Florian, along with the Sidebrow anthology, which is incredible, all for $30. Again, this is a deal that will go on through the show and 24 hours thereafter. Enjoy!

Live Giants, a live online monthly reading series
Excited to announce today a new monthly feature we’ve been drumming around for a while now, and finally ready to kick it off for 2010, HTML Giant Live Giants, a monthly reading series hosted right here on the site.
On the last non-Friday weekday of each month we’ll have a writer we love reading from their home, or perhaps surprise locations, via live streaming, 20 minutes or so followed by a chatbox-prompted q/a. With so many excellent people all over the place, and all the invites we get to readings that we wish we had a time/space portal for, we hope this will help fill some of that gap, and without necessarily putting on any pants.
The inaugural reading will be that fabulous Heather Christle. Mark your calendar to show up around here on Thursday January 28 at 9 PM Eastern and witness her incantations and brainspeaks. BYOB. No RSVP.
