Fall Reading List

Posted on

I thought I’d post what I’ve been reading this term, when I was reading for fun. Though given Goodreads, I think I’ll post this type of info there in the future, given it’s proclivity for other bibliophiles and their yearly Reading Challenge.

The No Name Reading Series have been podcasting the readings by the talented work of creative writing graduate students. Back on March 26, 2010, I gave a reading. I read four poems from My Imaginary, and a poem from my dissertation on Matilda Fletcher.

Two weeks ago on November 12, I gave my reading at the No Name, reading poems from My Imaginary, Ghost Girl, and from my forthcoming Branding Girls.

The sound quality is really good. And what a wonderful addition to an already wonderful reading series.

My Imaginary at Zen’s, too

My No Name reading is today, Friday November 12 at 4pm at Zen’s Lounge on 11th Street just north of O. Excited? Me too. Here are three new audio recordings of poems from My Imaginary.

And, if I have time, I might even read from Branding Girls forthcoming from Finishing Line Press. Branding Girls goes on pre-sale later this month. Yippee!

Things I’m thankful for:

  • I’ve just sent Arts & Letters the proof of my essay “Hunger.” I’m so excited to have my essay in their spring issue!
  • One of my advisers, Joy Castro, wrote about my capstone oral for my comprehensive exams, which took place at the end of October.
  • I’m officially ABD! Or, as Joy called it in her post, All but done. Yippee!!
  • As part of my residency this past summer is: My poem “Maternal Lineage” is up on the National Park Service’s Herbert Hoover Historic Site website (a residency which was mentioned in USA Today. Wow). There’s an audio file of it too:

Maternal Lineage

  • Split This Rock accepted the panel proposal I and two other fantastic poets submitted. We’re doing a panel on writing the activist body. It’s going to be super fun!
  • My wonderful adviser Carole Levin has motivated me to look into fellowships. Thanks Carole!
  • The amazing editors at Pudding House and Dancing Girl Press are publishing my chapbooks Ghost Girl and My Imaginary, respectfully.
  • A short story I wrote has been accepted for the Fall 2009 Relief Anthology, edited by J. K. Richard. Yeah!
  • And of course: my sweet A.
