For those of you in Chicago (and if you're not, please tell your friends who are):
My essay, "Forgiv: A Queer Call for Survival in the City", appears in the new anthology, Windy City Queer: LGBTQ Dispatches from Third Coast, edited by Kathie Bergquist.
No, that's not a typo: there's a reason why the "e" is missing from that word. If you want to know why, come hear me read, along with others, at Bucket O'Blood Books and Records, 2307 N. Milwaukee, Chicago, November 17 (Thursday). The event is from 7-10 p.m.
I hope to see you there!
