Another interesting evening

The readings are coming fast and furious now, and the first week of January is an excellent time to have a reading. We did our first-ever benefit reading for Frighten the Horses on the first Friday in January, and we literally had to turn people away. The turned-away people then lined up outside the windows peering in. What energy! (That was in 1990, fifteen solid years ago, not recently. Oh Lord, won't you stage your second coming soon, and stop time? Not before I publish at least my first novel, though.)
