The Wonderful Sound of My Own Voice

If you'd like to take it easy and let someone else do the reading for you, you can hear a recording of a reading that I gave in June at the New York Public Library. Thanks to the kindness of Brock Clarke and The Cincinnati Review, I was allowed to read for CLMP's "Periodically Speaking" series along with poet Tara Betts and non-fiction and fiction writer Maureen McCoy. I may sound nervous but that's a failing of the recording equipment; my voice, when I choose to speak, is heavy with confidence (if you were in attendance, you can back me up here).
