Digging: Sponsorship from bookstore

[scottwoods]

On lunch today I stopped by the mucho coolio bookstore, The Book Loft, in German Village.  I wanted to see if I could pull a sponsorship out of them for the reading, so I asked for the manager and gave him the pitch.  Once he realized I wasn't asking for money, he was happy to provide me with the opportunity to choose a few anthologies for the reading.  In return, I am posting them to my site as a sponsor and mentioning then during the reading when I read out of one of these books.

I picked out:

- The Book of 1000 Poems - Wings Books edition
- Best-Loved Poems - ed. Neil Philip
- A Treasury of American Poetry - ed. Allen Mandelbaum & Robert Richardson, Jr.

Remember: collecting the books is fun, but only half the job.  Pick your poems now!
