addition by subtraction

The reading which took place at St. Elmo's in Alexandria, VA produced a number of video poems that will soon be viewable on youtube at Plan B Press.

beyond that, the night was a wash. While the space may have potential, we didn't get the sense of being welcomed - rather merely tolerated. Not the atmosphere we are seeking. So, we will seek another location and try again.

There is no feeling worse than being "invited" and then made, if not unwelcome, then less than welcomed. I feel for you and the readers.

We've had couple experiences like that: arranging a reading (by request) and then having no use for what you are doing. I don't want to go into the details, though they are delicious

Still, I really commend you for getting started on this! And I know better experiences are coming.
