On Saturday the 18th of July, Musehouse is sponsoring its second annual Independent Press Night, with six authors presenting their works from six different Philly-area publishers. Last year's event was a big success even though I was one of the readers. This year, thankfully, I won't have to do anything but brief introductions, leaving the stage to a very distinguished lineup:
- Vincent D. Feldman, City Abandoned: Charting the Loss of Civic Institutions in Philadelphia / photography / Paul Dry Books
- Leonard Gontarek / poems / The American Poetry Review
- Anne Kaier, Home with Henry / memoir / PS Books
- Sarah Kowalski, “Draining the Oceans,” from South Philly Fiction / short fiction / Don Ron Books
- Vikram Paralkar, The Afflictions / novel / Lanternfish Press
- Nathaniel Popkin, Lion and Leopard / novel / The Head and the Hand Press
For more info about the readers, check the entries on our public Facebook page:

Also, for anyone inspired to write about the event, I have a press release available.
As always, the reading is free and open to the public, and there will be refreshments in the back room. Hope to see you there.
