Kitchen Reading Series

I like this: The Kitchen Reading Series, which is people doing readings in their kitchens.

PistolPress & Invisible Publishing present
The Kitchen Reading Series


Tired of boogie-boarding the net, watching laughing babies, silly cat montages, or anything scored to the Benny Hill Theme? For a grapefruit squirt in the eye, check out The Kitchen Reading Series, a video-based alternative to live literary readings. Our first batch features the following writers:

Deanna Fong
Stacey May Fowles
Jp King
Anna Leventhal
Jeff Miller
Hillary Rexe
Vince Tinguely

Here is an example, of Deanna Fong reading from her new book BUTCHER’S BLOCK from PistolPress, which looks really great:

      Anna Leventhal’s reading is great too. The way she disconnects from her own reading to drink a mug of coffee (or whiskey or whatever) is fantastic.

      it is hard to focus on the words when a beautiful women reads them in her kitchen.

      i watched all of the videos. i think Hillary Rexe is my favorite.

      Anna Leventhal was good. It kind of reminded me of that Miranda July movie. I don’t know why.

      i think you have to be an author of the publisher putting on the series.
