April, although NaPoWriMo, is really the month of work travel for me, not readings. There are so many wonderful readings coming up in my area in the next few weeks; could some of you go for me, please?

Kevin Young is reading at the ICA in Boston on 16 April. (I loved his book Black Maria.)

Also on 16 April is X. J. Kennedy at the Lexington High School!

On 2 April, Sabra Loomis and Jennifer Rose at the Suffolk University Poetry Center at 5:30pm (much, much too early to escape from work in time to arrive).
