The second Royal Oak Salon has been rescheduled for Friday, June 29th. Apparently a new Charlie Kaufman film is being taped at the Royal Oak Monday-Thursday, and they do not want us as extras. The reading/performance will still run 8-10pm, at which point we shall resume our regular Friday evening activities. Sorry for the late notice, and we implore you: come!
Royal Oak Salon #2 will feature candles, air-conditioning, three superb writers, and no songs afterwards.

TAO LIN will read poetry.
JED LIPINSKI will read fiction.
ANNA MCDONALD will read poetry.
