Hot Dish

Last Saturday night we hosted another fine Hot Dish at our house and it was a blast.  About eighty people turned out to drink beer, eat barbecue, and hear readings by Cecil Castellucci, Andrew Choate, Heather Havrilesky, Michal Lemberger, and Ruth McKee.  The silly thing I read is here.

Thank you so much to Dev for setting up the PA system, the chairs, the lights, and everything else, and to Jason Gutierrez for taking these gorgeous photos. And most of all, thanks to my amazing co-producer for the last four years, J. Ryan Stradal.

After a too-long hiatus, I'm back on The Nervous Breakdown telling everybody about my awesome old-person hobbies.
