feti(sh)ame FEEDBACK

If you're reading this, you probably attended the event tonight (feels strange creating this entry hours BEFORE the event yet speaking in the present perfect and past tenses:).

Please go here and complete a BRIEF survey. This will REALLY help me and other emerging artists in SF. I'm serious.

Thanks for your support. It makes me better.

And do check in with me here, at Red Room or kevinsimmonds.com, which will, if I get some grant money, not be so modest.

The last few days have been miraculous. Men from Maryland to San Francisco have talked to me on the phone and in person about their fetishes. We've all made discoveries. The song lyrics are coming along, too. I'm looking for a cute guitar player.

Sharing and Sharpening

I read a few feti(sh)ame poems at the final reading in the Jack Straw Writers Series last Friday. It was only the second time I'd shared any of those poems in public. Not one person said anything to me about them. I did receive a FB friend request from an audience member who thanked me, specifically, for writing about fetishes. Other than that, nothing. I'm going to keep presenting these poems at various readings in and outside of the SF bay area to see what's working and what needs work. Tomorrow, if it works out, I'll go over to Mojo Bicycle Cafe and see what they think.
