It all started with us surprising the folks at The Jet Hotelwith our arrival, and it ended with a life-saving Heimlich maneuver over organic noodles.  In between, we heard great stories about false prophets, people throwing furniture from houses, bossiness, some demons being worse than others, a woman dreaming in an old claw-foot tub, a little girl packing her tiny suitcases, and a dog named Winston Churchill.  All of you were amazing.  Quote from instructor Jennifer Itell: "I left there marveling at the amount of talent in the world."  True, true.

Lit Fest Participant Reading, Part II on Wednesday @ Alto Restaurant (drinks 7:30; start at 8:00 PM).
