Joe Meno, Ryan Boudinot, Matthew Simmons

This reading features three young men at varying stages of literary greatness. The prolific Meno has already put out three wonderful novels—The Boy Detective Fails is a twisted riff on the Hardy Boys—but his newest, The Great Perhaps, squarely places him in the big leagues. Local author Boudinot's first novel, Misconceptions, will be ˆreleased to great expectations this fall. Simmons is a local blogger and bookseller whose first novella, The Jello Horse, is a promising debut. Mark my words: All three are on the way up.

The Boy Detective Fails was one of my favorite new discoveries. Definitely go check this out if you're in the area.

HEY! Where's the post promoting the newly revitalized Capitol Hill Artwalk, AKA Blitz with over 40 venues AND a freakin' art parade, (whatever the fuck that is)? It starts TONITE and as good neighbors you need to be promoting it. I know your boyfriend du jour, Sherman Alexie isn't involved, but your girlfriend Ellen Forney IS, so show the love.

And Jen Graves being out of town is NO fracken excuse...get to work.
