This brings me back to the ostensible purpose of this blog–shedding light on what goes into getting a first book out there.
A few months back I dumped a fair amount of time into seeing what readings series were out there as I’m planning on at least doing a number of readings on the east coast and the midwest if not more on the West Coast, time, money, health, and sanity allowing. So after hours of Googling “Poetry Reading + (city)” and emailing friends, imagine the horror / joy I felt when I found out Carrie Adams at Black Ocean put together a reading series / independent bookstore wiki.
It’s still in the proto-stage, so it still needs your help in becoming the incredibly useful resource it should be.
