Busboys and Poets has opened a new branch in Shirlington, VA, and I will be hosting the poetry night Monday, October 1, when we'll feature DC Poets Against the War stalwart and Vrzhu Press editor Dan Vera. Followed by an open mic!
The reading starts at 8:00 pm, but come early for dinner or a drink and make it a festive occasion. Busboys and Poets, 4251 S. Campbell Ave., Arlington, VA. (Directions at http://www.busboysandpoets.com/.)
