Finally did my reading - and SANG! It was so freeing to let go - the tears, the shame, the anger, the sadness. I miss my father and reading brought him closer. Now I can add to the memoir.
Chris told me today that section really moved him. If I can just get the rest of my work to read the same way, I might have something....
The one that floored me was the 10 things not to do at a poetry reading.... and the guy should do stand up. After nearly 3 hours, we all needed a break - something to keep us wetting our pants....
Richard gave some places to send stuff.
Man I'm glad I gave up my summer to come here. I wonder why I was resisting this all along?
