The “Uncensored” Gaze

American Legion Post 134 2104 NE Alberta St, Portland, OR, United States

If the "Untold" story was too R-rated to be read at the gallery... or on the radio... or at Powell's... its time has come! TEN of our authors will be reading their amazing - over-sexed, foul-mouthed, squirm-inducing, or otherwise just too damn "adult" - stories. Reading will be: Stephen Arndt, Liz Asch, Doug Chase, David Ciminello, Sean Davis, Dian Greenwood, Sara Guest, Robert Hill, Lisa Kaser, and Kevin Meyer... and maybe a surprise or two...?

Songbook PDX 13

American Legion Post 134 2104 NE Alberta St, Portland, OR, United States

From Facebook event: I'll be reading with an *amazing* group of writers on the songs that terrified and inspired us. Each reader will read their piece about a song that either terrified or inspired them. Then you'll hear the song. It's the literary mixtape you always wanted. And in my case, it's so. damn. queer. And funny in that painful hanging out alone behind the gym with your Walkman kind of way.
