tonight at litquake!

I’ll be reading at the Makeout Room tonight with Stephen Elliott, Michelle Tea, Will Christopher Baer, and Craig Clevenger. I’m excited about hearing from Clevenger’s new novel, Dermaphoria, the follow-up to his cultishly beloved The Contortionist’s Handbook. The reading will be emceed by MacAdam/Cage publisher David Poindexter–yes, you’ve seen him, that tall fellow with the perpetual grin who’s always buying drinks for the down-and-out writer folks. It’s all part of Litquake, which wraps up today.

If you just can’t get enough Stephen Elliott, he’ll be hosting a Writing the Novel Seminar tomorrow at 826 Valencia. Panelists include yours truly, Andrew Sean Greer, and Bharati Mukherjee.
