Random & Snippets

Anyone with HTML G sensibilities (have no idea what that means, so or not) has a reading during AWP please comment here with time, place/sarcophagus of shouts. This is a selfish post (but not, people wanna know). My emails bury me, like all. I am at AWP Denver interviewing professors for a job (at BSU/work), but would love to strike (hunger, bass lure, match box, beauty, etc.) mad readings every single night, 7pm to oblivion. List them here. For those in town Tuesday to Sunday of AWP, where should we go, when? And how exactly are the nachos?

      I’m not reading at this, but I’ll be happily attending. I’m doing a couple of panels at the conference, one on Friday afternoon and one on Saturday afternoon. The cooler one, I think, is on point of view, with Benjamin Percy, Lauren Groff, Holly Goddard Jones, and Christopher Coake.
