Zork & I are on Border's website (poetry film) !!!

Apr 14, 2009 07:00

Happy Poetry Month! Behold the link--I am #6. My 15 minutes of fame--supposedly Borders emails 23 million people. I will engage in morning revelry and not be modest.

Thanks!

An entirely unrelated thread, except to you...
Hey--the airline Magazine on the flight home from Detroit had a bit about happenings in Memphis (where I am from) and it included ROLLERDERBY. But then may you know that.

That's pretty awesome. Excellent readings by both of you.

Thank you-- lv_prosewriter April 14 2009, 22:39:02 UTC

We knew it was in the works but weren't sure what day. I woke up at 4am to the sound of Zork watching his. He had just gotten the email that it was up. He is up on and off most nights--anyway--there we were watching in the middle of the night. We are SO silly.

Again thanks. We miss you. Hope all is well, or even great.

Congrats! who's putting these together,but do you remembeR? anthony or martha?

Re: yay lv_prosewriter April 14 2009, 22:46:44 UTC

Thanks. Anthony has been in touch with us lately. They filmed us in Madison, but then he used footage he had shot of me earlier in NYC. I'm not sure he realized who I was and that he had it until he met me in Madison?

He has been very enthusiatic about my work, so that makes me feel good in a year when I could use that (mostly from workload at "day" job / much done in middle of the night).

As soon as he emailed and said which footage he had, I was looking forward to seeing it--not just from the incredible honor to be on Borders, but also because I remember that night. Didn't even know Zork had put me on the list--called up cold-- but then felt good about it and got lots of comments. So-- glad it was recorded....

Congratulations! I've been loving that Open Door series, and happy to see so many of our contemporaries up there with the big guns.

THANKS lv_prosewriter April 14 2009, 22:39:50 UTC

I am happy to be the peon amongst those big guns.
