Concurrent Sessions, Bad Poetry, T-shirt skits and author Chris Abani

another day of the convention has come to an end -- concurrent sessions filled most of the day and in the evening we were completely rapt as author Chris Abani read to us from brand-new material written just today for our conference!  not only that, but he fielded questions for almost an hour and then signed books. 

To cap off the day, bad poetry was heard in the convention halls with top honors (perhaps a misnomer for a bad poety contest) going to Micah Hicks and Shannin entertained the audience with a special reading of "Look Away."  Maybe we can get her to repeat the performance next year in Pittsburgh!

What did you do today?  We want to know!

  1. Went on a trip up the arch on Friday! Was absolutely fantastic! Many wonderful pictures were taken and it's an experience I wouldn't trade for the world - hope others had just as wonderful a time! :)
