Since 2001, the Budapest Bardroom - which hosts performance nights for the city's English-speaking literati - has hosted many writers and musicians from across the world. Last week, I was honored by being the featured poet at this winter's reading, where I performed a selection of my writing. Another American expat friend of mine, Aubrey Ramage-Lay, read his fiction, while an English/South African woman sang and played guitar. The whole combination was great, and I loved reading my work again. When I was in college, I co-hosted a weekly open-mic at a Boulder cafe, and I hadn't realized how much I missed participating in literary readings! I hope I can participate in more open-mics in the future. A large group of my friends here came out to watch, and I felt really lucky to have so much support.
I'm featured on the Bardoom website now too:
