Also, I'm reading next week

So the writer's block panic can be a bit explained right there. Here's the details:

THE MIXING BOWL
LITERARY READING SERIES
The Word is Out: Oakland’s Emerging Writers Mix it Up!
WHEN: Wednesday, September 10, 2008, 7:00 p.m.
WHERE: The Mixing Bowl Cafe, 4920 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland

The line-up also includes Aimee Suzara, Alexandra Teague and Lolan Buhain Sevilla. I'll probably be reading from "Pythia Says" and maybe some new stuff. If there is any.

Instantaneity

I've started a new Twitter project. Check it out at Instantaneity.

Is it a gimmick? Yes.

Is that a problem? Not necessarily.

I'll admit I haven't a clue what it's about yet. I started it as a project to combat writer's block -- as I could publish any little thought I had, any time, with no pressure to be brilliant or write a whole poem. I'm taking a wait-and-see approach to find out how it progresses.
