Writers! is a monthly reading series dedicated to the proposition that readings should be: excellent, well-read pieces that have at least one thing in them that makes people laugh (nervous laughter counts), and don't run more than 15 minutes each.Cheryl B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/05050957436287324244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573499.post-9911379821752482632008-09-28T16:00:00.004-04:002008-09-28T16:48:01.881-04:00PVC Lit CrawlI got a late start today thanks to last night's Poetry Vs.

I may go to a museum after work and then to the gym. I may eat a chocolate croissant for breakfast. A mani/pedi may occur at some point this weekend. Tomorrow, I'm watching <i>Weeds</i> with my ex. I have work to catch up on the rest of the weekend. <br /><br />For my birthday, I'd like everyone to come to PVC on Wednesday.

Tales with happy endings are welcome, but let's face it, terrible dates usually make better stories. I'd especially like stories of dates set up by mutual friends or family (or even a matchmaker), though great online-dating stories are welcome, too. They can be short or long, however long it takes. (I'm guessing these will be stories you've told before.) I will change names and details to disguise you, and I will edit the writing, so don't worry about polishing it." <br /><br />Check out <a href="http://virginiavitzthum.com">virginiavitzthum.com</a> for more information.Cheryl B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/05050957436287324244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573499.post-67031781679178350472008-09-05T07:18:00.005-04:002008-09-05T07:49:19.648-04:00FridayMy raw food fast ends today. I think people typically do these for longer, but even though I love fruits and veggies, I'm sort of bored with my diet. I've had more energy the last few days and I haven't been hungry. The experience made me think about what I normally eat. I'm relatively healthy, but I consume too much caffeine and too many carbs. I'll probably never cut these things out completely, but it's something to keep in mind. My stomach seems a bit flatter too, although that might just be an illusion. Overall it's been pretty good.<br /><br />Today I upgrade to oatmeal, yogurt, maybe some tofu. And coffee! One (large) cup!Cheryl B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/05050957436287324244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573499.post-2928021342423382352008-08-27T00:30:00.002-04:002008-08-27T00:33:59.120-04:00Poetry Vs.

I just want to say thanks if you're still checking the blog. I know I've been a real blog delinquent. I'm giving myself detention which is partially why I'm at home this fourth of July. Okay, it's really because I don't drink or eat barbecue, I don't like being out in the sun and I'm not a fan of fireworks... But it's nice to have a day off. I did some writing this morning, then I treated myself to a tasty carb breakfast at the diner (hash browns and toast, 2 cups of coffee) worked out for ninety minutes, then bought new jeans. Quite a nice day. I'm happy to stay in tonight with my laptop, a frozen burrito and some DVDs. <br /><br />Although I'm sort of over reporting on the minutiae of my life, a lot has happened in the past few months:<br /><br />1. T/A and I broke up. It's been completely amicable and we're still truly good friends. We see each other frequently and she even gave me her old bike. She's awesome.<br /><br />2. I got a bike.<br /><br />3. Been keeping up my promise to get my <a href="http://theblist.blogspot.com/2008/04/boring-list.html">"literal and literary asses in line"</a>. I've been going to the gym and writing a ton. I've finished a few new poems and have drafts of a few essays. And I'm on my way to semi-sveltdom.<br /><br />4. Also reading alot and keeping up my private paper blog, also known as my journal. <br /><br />5. <a href="http://www.myspace.com/pvcshow">PVC</a> is still awesome, awesome, awesome. It's probably one of the best things I've been involved with in all my years being involved in such things. <br /><br />6. I'm part of the <a href="http://theblist.blogspot.com/2008/07/non-sequitur-summer-festival-august-19.html"> Non Sequitur 2008 Summer Festival</a> in August. This year's theme is one of my favorite topics; Rejection.

ComposersCollaborative inc. (CCi) assembles a cast with 5 composers, 5 poets, 7 musicians & 2 theater artists. The composers and poets pair up, create five new works, and perform them with NON SEQUITUR house band NEWSPEAK. Musical and literary worlds collide, styles are stretched, and creative envelopes are pushed to unpredictable yet always entertaining heights. <br /><br /><b>Regie Cabico</b>, returns as literary curator and irrepressible host. Our spoken word contingent – <b>Anselm Berrigan, Bakar Wilson, Cheryl Burke, and Douglas A. Martin</b> – descend from New-York-School Royalty to a generation of slam hip hop champions. Our roster of composers – <b>David First, Jennifer Griffith, Kate Soper, Sima Wolf, and CCi Artistic Director Jed Distler</b> – brings together home-grown mavericks, experimentalists and not-yet-categorized voices. The cast is abetted by director <b>Arnold Barkus</b>, lighting designer <b>David Lovett</b>, and <b>Newspeak – Eileen Mack (clarinets), Dave Broome (synthesizer/piano), Taylor Levine (guitar), David T. Little (drums) – with Mellissa Hughes (diva)</b>.

But after dealing with a series of personal problems, I'm back, hopefully on a semi-regular basis. There are some exciting things upcoming, including a a very cool project taking place this summer. I'll post the details when I have them, which should be soon. <br /><br />In the mean time, I've put myself on a writing/gym schedule to get both my literal and literary asses in line. That's right I have two asses. I'm special like that. Right now, I'm digging the spring weather, and my new iPod has been keeping me happy on the subway and anti-social at the internet cafe. <br /><br />More soon, I promise.Cheryl B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/05050957436287324244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573499.post-91661437217010224522008-04-21T19:46:00.001-04:002008-04-21T19:49:25.319-04:00Poetry Vs.
