Clearly I have no concept of fitting space time into linear and timely communiques, so I’m acknowledging that from the beginning, that my ratio of plane flights to reporting is abysmally high, and getting to the point of this straight up:

There is book reading in Philadelphia at 7pm at Wooden Shoe Books this Thursday February 18th. They contacted me after the reading at Bluestockings last summer, and I’m excited that we finally organized a day together. If you happen to be in or near Philadelphia, it would be great to see friendly/known faces in the audience, or if you think somebody might enjoy the event, please let them know.

Usually with book readings I try to get everybody’s name and a sense of what people want to hear about, there’s no predetermined sermon or anything. Although, sometimes, true to the name, I will read. And I take requests.

After that, I’ll likely be doing some other readings in Connecticut and maybe down in Baltimore next month, as part of my East Coast estancia. As they say, the hacienda must be built. Mexico was three trips in one and I have old napkins and Gandhian cotton paper full of stories and ruminations that I may or may not put together in the coming times.

It feels like I’ll be on the East Coast until May and I’m excited to visit the Beautiful people, so please send me an email if you’re down. And if you want to organize a reading in your hometown, that’s a great excuse as well. And I have a phone. And if I haven’t called you yet, it’s entirely my fault.

All love
