This week, the AWP conference is in Denver. It will be a circus, a zoo, and a madhouse all put together. There are readings planned for nearly every moment during which there aren’t panels planned, and even some that overlap. I am participating in two readings, one tonight (sorry for the short notice), and one tomorrow. Here are the infos:
