Well Judy I said I'll pass the details of the event on to them. I'm far more
interested in reading than giving readings myself at present, besides, I
don't like the market language that's now being used in poetry, it's a place
I go to in order to evade the capitalists, not surreptitiously join them.
Whereas I keep being approached about stuff like the Poetry Brothel event
all the time I find libraries throwing out books of real quality.
