Tonight, I’m looking forward to performing with some great poets and writers at Hell Phone located at 247 Varet Street in Brooklyn from 7pm to 9pm.
I will be reading some new work: a loose ode to a certain squirrel, sing a love song with uke about dating in NYC and who knows what else will happen!!!
Readers include: Elizabeth Ribar, Abigail Welhouse, Steve Castro, Stephanie Dickinson, Julie Bentsen, Craig Kite, Aimee Herman, and Puma Perl.

NYSAI Press publishes Staten Island based literary journals featuring artists and writers with distinct voices in a borough forgotten. We are city, we are suburbia; we are deformed, we are beautiful; we are America, and we are forever cut from the mainland. We are NYSAI Press and pledge to present it all, break it down, fuck it up, and move it forward.
