A reading and a new book

Next week I’m headed down to Long Island to go to my alma mater, good ol’ Suffolk Community College, for a reading. I’ll be one of four featured readers. The event’s being hosted by the school and David Axelrod, the Suffolk County Poet Laureate. The details are as such:

Wednesday, April 1, 2009 – 6pm

Mildred Green Room
Babylon Student Center
Suffolk County Community College
533 College Road
Selden, NY 11784

The reading is a celebration of four former Suffolk students who have recently had a poetry chapbook published in conjunction with Axelrod’s “young poets” program. I’m one of these supposed “young poets.” My chapbook’s called Lemons. I’ll talk more about the book later, as I haven’t even seen the thing yet.

If you’re in the area, stop by.
