I am apologizing in the first sentence for this quickly put together post. Just too much going on right now, but I do want to get these photos up and the recording of the reading, for those who were there, and those who couldn’t make it. I have some great photos by Natascha and also Dale and I want to include them here below. Through out the 90 minutes of poetry, my part and Luna Branwen’s there were consistently about 35-40 people present, which is a great audience for a Second Life poetry reading. I want to thank both Serene Bechir for inviting me, and Luna Branwen , who was the perfect choice to double-bill together:) and my sister Maria Vought who runs the images and is so important to me and last, all those who chose to come to our joint reading. Thank you Thank you Thank you. The .mp3 can be heard by clicking here:
