Last night, I met with the co-heads of my school's literary magazine, Triangle, and they agreed to help sponsor my open reading. We have a date set for April 23 and are still working on some of the details, but at the moment it looks like there will be food, various types of lighting and, basically, a lot of fun. We plan to design it to be fairly informal so there won't be any pre-sign up. Girls will just be able to show up on the night of with their work memorized or night and perform.
This is the first big event I've ever organized and I'm a little nervous about pulling it off, but mostly excited. So far, I've learned this type of thing involves a lot of emails and meetings. I've had two meetings about it so far and I am scheduled to meet with the school's Director of Activities early next week to go over more details. The Triangle co-heads could not have been more eager or supportive in this endeavor, for which I am very grateful, and I am looking forward to spearheading the rest of this project.
It's great to see you blog active again, Katey! I like how your project is evolving, and agree that the spoken form will be a new and exciting aspect to experience. You seem to be taking all the right steps toward organizing your event and I am confident that it will go well. In addition to all this, you have your publishing results to look forward to. All in all, things are going quite well for you. Keep up the great effort!
