so this is happening

The essay-slash-story that preoccupied much of last year's writing energy is going to see the light of day at a reading at Elliott Bay Books on April 4. I'm proud of the anthology, Beyond Belief, happy with my work and terrified to read this thing in front of actual people.
Scenarios play out in my mind constantly:
Will I chicken out and hire a stunt reader?
Or get completely wasty beforehand next door at Oddfellows and slur my way through?
Or maybe I'll function like a grown-up for once, get up there with my fellow editors and writers and soldier through my five minutes with reasonable gravitas.
Who can tell? Come down and see for yourself.
