poster for this event

Lucille Lang Day gave us the scoop on switchblades in middle school, and how she started seriously looking for a husband when she was twelve. Laleh Khadivi confronted the past and plucked our heartstrings. At some point, a clown mysteriously appeared on stage. Robin Bullard let us know what it's like having bad people in the back of your taxi cab. Guy Benjamin Brookshire read from his chilling apocalodystopian novel Vacation.


Jon Wells died before the show, but Tom Joyce read a powerful passage from Jon's novel, an amazing evocation of what it was like to be about to go to fight in Vietnam. Jon was a brilliant writer who passed away too soon, and we honor his memory.
