Cool!
Jessica had to cancel due to a family commitment, so the 7:30 slot will now feature AKeem Jamal Rollins. :-)
Thanks for the update-- I corrected the listing.
A great time at the Canton First Friday yesterday. The Mola gallery was quite an interesting place to read. Due to crowds milling around and such I actually didn't get started until about fifteen minutes late, to a pretty small audience, but after first couple of pieces, some more audience arrived. People seemed to like the reading, and I sold a couple of books.
After that, we went over to the Tuttle gallery, but it took us a while to find it, so we only caught the very end of Theresa Göttl's reading. But she ended strong, so that was good. And then we hit dinner at a place called Peter Shears, which was excellent. Good day!
