Gary, I'm confused by the dates - when exactly - May? I
live very near Santa Monica and can easily get to Pacific
Palisades and Abbot-Kinney Blvd. is easy for me as is Beyond
Baroque. I'd certainly like to meet you - wouldn't that be
a kick, kindly co-director. Lunches Sat or Sun would be
fine, or I could take you to dinner the night you arrive,
depending of course on arrival time.
How exciting! Might be interesting to meet some of the poets
you know around here. I get awfully lonely feeling like the
only one in L.A. By the way, watch out for Beyond Baroque -
it has a reputation for being hard on poets - very macho.
