hosted by michelle tea.





reading followed by questions and answers and cookies.

it goes like this:



you, the audience, ask an intelligent and perhaps even 

witty--no pressure--question. 

the brainy and charming writers respond.

i, the hostess, deliver you a home-made cookie.

everybody wins.
