Opium Literary Death Match - March 12th @ the Rickshaw Stop

For those interested, I’ll be competing for beer at the Rickshaw Stop at Fell and Van Ness, 7 PM – March 12

I’ll be reading from short stories but will have Perfume Dreams for those who want to buy.

Please come, and spread the word. I promise to be funny and entertaining.

Andrew

Here’s note from the host:

For the first time, we’re inviting local publishing houses to send local writers to read—Writers will have a chance to sell their books and dazzle the crowd—We’d love to have a Heyday writer along for the battle.

Here’s a little about LDM:

Opium’s Literary Death Match challenges the notion that a reading series has to be a mind-numbing affair hosted in a drafty room with no booze breaks. The Death Match is a competitive, humor-centric reading series that features four literary publications (both online and in print) in an edge-of-your-seat read-off. Readers do their thing for ten minutes or less, and three guest-star judges affectionately discuss their favorites based on three categories: literary merit, performance and intangibles. The two finalists then compete in a Death Match challenge to decide the ultimate winner. (www.literarydeathmatch.com)

Good writing and beer—it’s pretty much the best time ever : >

PS. I won. It was very fun.
