And in case you’re wondering – no, I’m not reading because my entry happens to be just so damn good, lol. It’s because I happen to live in the area. I believe the star of the evening will be Chris Cevasco, whose “Time Cactus” entry has been (deservedly) racking up accolade after accolade.
In other news, nothing of interest or note is happening with my writing or my so-called writing “career” – deservedly so, I suppose. Well, there’s always next year… :/
