Dodge

Is anyone going to Geraldine Dodge first weekend in October?

Last time I went was four years ago. I brought Tender Buttons (it was her first poetry festival). She asked if everyone would be wearing berets. I laughed and assured her, no way. When we got there we saw at least 100 people wearing berets. To this day, TB still busts my chops.

I might. Hal Sirowitz is a "poet among us," so I might go as the Soft Skull rep. Not sure yet. Will depend on how many deadlines I have missed by the time I get back from Texas on 9/26. :)

Is it fun? I've never been.

If you do go, let me know. It's being held at new venue, but the place they used to hold it was nice (if the weather was good). There are some corny aspects of it, but overall I always have fun. Tons of people show up, a good number of folks who are more on the "reader" side of the fence. I think I had a pretty tasty gyro last time I was there.
