Tonight we're launching The Furnace, and I'm very excited to be reading my story "More Like Home Than Home". Corinne asked me a question about that story over on The Furnace's blog, giving a little taste for the evening's festivities, and over at Hollow Earth Radio's blog there's a nice round up of all the write ups we've gotten thus far.  And here's the Facebook invite. Hooray! Hope to see you tonight!

I'm thrilled to kick off a new quarterly reading series in Seattle called The Furnace and hosted by Corinne Manning. The series features one new prose writer at a time, and its mission is "to encourage innovative storytelling and a vibrant literary community." I like to think of it as literary biodiversity.The reading is Wednesday, August 1, 6-7 pm at Hollow Earth Radio's performance space in the Central District. You should come!Check out the series's Facebook page and "like" it: http://www.facebook.com/thefurnaceseattle
