Oh, AWP, DC
Are you already preparing? Are you carbo-loading, flooding your system with antioxidants, reading everything Jumpa Lahiri ever wrote, doing deep-squats and calf-raises to help with the bookfair hike, locating all your old flings in and about the DC area, saving up your pennies for the overpriced hotel, asking a friend if you can ship them books, if they’ll ship them back, if you can sleep in their carport? Well, not us. We’re planning parties.
But, Flatmancrooked is going to be on a budget, of sorts. So, we’re trying to figure out what’s the most important thing to have an AWP off-site event and what most folks want to avoid. No worries, our Puppets vs. Authors will happen again at our booth in the book fair, our authors will be found at various readings. But, we’re talking parties folks. So, let us know what you want. Feel free to comment about what you dread.
When I go to an AWP off-site event, all I really want is . . .
