Come Watch the Literati Kick My Butt

Actually, the literati won’t be literally knocking me around—I do have a pretty good height and weight advantage, after all—but chances are that when I take part in the Council of Literary Magazines and Presses annual spelling bee next Monday night at the Riverhouse Discovery Center, anybody from Jonathan Burnham to Sara Nelson, or Michael Cunningham or Thisbe Nissen, not to mentioning returning champ Robert Sietsema, might be able to outmaneuver me at the microphone.

This is an expensive ticket ($75) but it benefits the CLMP’s work supporting literary magazines and independent publishers, and it should be a good time, so please do consider coming.
