A lot of Tea

It may seem like I am Michelle Tea's personal PR service, but look, I just reprint them as she sends them to me, sometimes correcting her spelling.

Upcoming Michelle Tea readings:

• Thursday, Feb. 3 at New Langton Arts, 1246 Folsom St. in San Francisco, with David Larsen
• Saturday, Feb. 5 at the Jon Sims Center at 1519 Mission St., along with Thea Hillman, Simone De La Ghetto "and many others"
• Saturday, Feb. 12, at Barnes & Noble -- I guess she means the only one in San Francisco, at 2552 Taylor St. -- with several other contributors to the MT-edited anthology Without a Net

Finally, Tea's own monthly reading series is next Tuesday:
