Now I have to make a decision on what to read…muahahaha
it will be weird for sure!
I read my short story Mara for the Bowery Gothic’s Halloween Reading at Von Bar on October 30, 2022.
Let’s go to the video tape! (many of you don’t even get that!)
Throughout my reading, I started to hunch over the mic. I only realized afterwards that the mic stand was falling and as I held onto it and my pages, I started to lean to one side! Ha!
The other contributors were so talented and I loved hearing their pieces. The final reading of the night was of Poe’s The Raven. That was such a funny and unique reading of well know piece. Loved it!
It was so awesome to get back into things, so thankful to have the opportunity.
Please check out Bowery Gothic and have a drink or two at Von Bar.
