My First Reading
My first-ever public reading of my fiction went really well. I read my story "How Do You Want To Die?" from the Crossed Genres anthology Fat Girl In A Strange Land at the Arisia convention in Boston tonight. I managed to read fairly smoothly, and the audience seemed to enjoy the story. It was also nice to see some friends among the listeners.
I also really enjoyed readings by novelist Resa Nelson and poet Sonya Taaffe who shared the timeslot with me.
If you're at Arisia, I'll be in the dealers' room all weekend with Dandelion Studios (aside from a few slots where I'm at panels). Stop by and check out my comics!
