Julie Buntin, the Director of Programs & Strategic Outreach for CLMP, says, “We’ve got a lovely reception planned with enough food and drink to feed an army of starving writers–or just hungry ones.”
I hope that the refreshments–along with the diversity of poets and presses represented–will provide enough incentive to go. Do come by if you’re free and around.

This looks nice Michael. I’d like to check out the beginning before heading to Ozu fest at the Film Forum.
Great–see you there, Greg!
