From the desk of Jim Ruland,
Last year I had so much fun bringing Vermin on the Mount out to Denver for AWP I decided to do it again. This year’s AWP destination has special significance because not only will it be the first VOTM east of the Mississippi, but Washington D.C. is home turf for me. I grew up across the Potomac in Falls Church, Virginia, and have lots of fond memories of going to Georgetown throughout high school and college (the drinking age was 18 and everyone had fake IDs). Anyhoodles, here’s what you need to know:
WHO: Kim Chinquee, Roy Kesey, Amber Sparks, Lindsay Hunter, Nicolette Kittinger, Tom Williams, Al Heathcock & Scott McClanahan
WHAT: A night of irreverent readings, an extraordinary raffle, and a shitload of bad jokes aimed at embarrassing my mother sponsored by the fine folks at Annalemma Magazine.
WHEN: Friday, Feb 4 at 8pm
WHERE: Mie N Yu 3125 M Street in Georgetown
WHY: Ask our poster artist Goodloe Byron. He know.
Visit http://www.vermin.blogs.com for exclusive interviews with the readers, details about the FREE merch to be given away during the Vermin raffle, and 20% off food and 20% off drinks at the bar with your AWP badge at Mie N Yu!
When you plan your AWP festivities and frolics on Friday night, be sure to check out Vermin on the Mount at Mie N Yu.
