Hello!

Not so much blogging happening because all the work's been going into CooperDillon.com

Head on over and check things out. We've tweaked the look, and will be bringing you Gary L. McDowell's They Speak of Fruit before you sit down to make your Thanksgiving feast.

If you want to learn a bit about Polish, check out Russell Evatt, the Krakow Migrant.

As always, please take a look though the blogroll, and make a new friend.

If you're not where I am...

On Wednesday in Chicago (from Lady Guth):

Please join us from 7-9 p.m. on Wednesday, November 4 for readings by Chicago authors Kathie Bergquist (curator of Sappho's Salon and co-author of A Field Guide to Gay and Lesbian Chicago) and Geoff Hyatt (whose dark fantasy novel, Malagon Rising, is forthcoming in 2010 from Leucrota Press), local poet Andrew Lewellen and Minnesota poet Wendy Brown-Baez.

Since it's one year to the day of the Presidential elections, this month's theme is "Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes." Trivia questions may range from politics to transgenderism to yes, maybe David Bowie.

As always, we're in the back room at Sheffield's, 3258 N. Sheffield Ave. There's a $3 cover. Grab a seat, a cocktail and a bite to eat at 7 p.m. Readings begin at 7:30 p.m. You're welcome to stick around for cocktails and conversation with the authors and audience after the event.

Cheers!
