Laila Lalami will be reading from her first novel, Hope and Other Dangerous Pursuits, at Olsson's Books & Records-Dupont tonight at 7pm.
You may also know Laila from her popular blog, Moorish Girl, or from her rockin' good taste in music.
C. M. Mayo will also be reading tonight at Candida's World of Books, the cool new international bookstore on the block. Mayo will be reading from Mexico: A Traveler's Literary Companion tonight at 6:30.
You may also know Mayo from her new blog, Madam Mayo, or from her rockin' good taste in music.
Finally, come out and meet me, the Happy Booker, at Politics & Prose this Saturday at 6pm for the launch of Enhanced Gravity, an anthology of Washington-area women fiction writers. I will be reading with other EG contributors Kate Blackwell, Susan Coll, Robin Ferrier, Meena Arora Nayak, Sibbie O’Sullivan, Elizabeth Poliner, Rose Solari, Sally Steenland, and Venus Thrash. This will be one raucous reading you won't want to miss!
Hola Wendi, See you at the Enhanced Gravity launch!

Hi Wendy, friend of Tim Wendel's here (he introduced me to your blog). And one of the other authors in EG. Looking forward to meeting you tonight at P&P!

It was great to meet you at the EG reading! I've been to your site many times before, but you're the first blogger I've met live in person. I'm glad we're both in the book too!
