Cleaning off a small piece of acreage on my desk has led me into so many tangents that I fear I may never come out. But I’m poking my head above the morass to tell you that I have a reading coming up I’ll be reading mostly from my most recent book FLOUR, WATER, SALT, https://www.amazon.com/Flour-Water-Sa...

From the blurb: This is food as more than recipes and restaurant reviews. Join me for the ragout of ritual and celebration, help yourselves from the platters of tradition and culture. Be nourished by the joys and sorrows of life, find succor in the soup of sex, sensuality, and pleasure.

Wish so many of you weren't so far away.

All the best. I know you'll hit a homerun because you love a crowd!

Feliks (dzerzhinsky) odd category to post a notice of an author-signing event...?

You're right. My aim must have been off. I've moved it now.

GO, TEAM! (And I hope Ruth sold a baker's dozen books!)

Thanks, everyone. Here's a photo from the reading. There were about 25 people there, which is a pretty good audience for a poetry reading. And they were really responsive which makes it great fun.
Oh, and I sold 5 books, Ken. Or was it 6?

Carol | 10410 comments Yay, glad you had some book sales.

Me, too. Book sales are hard to come by for poets.
