Hi Garrett, congratulations. The Houston Fest is a great event with readings, technical talks, good networking, and publication in the anthology. Have you attended previous Fests? Is Robert Clark still the Event Chair? While at the UT Medical Branch in Galveston, I was a Juried Poet when Lorenzo Thomas was Liaison with the Univ. of Houston. He has since died -- a real loss to the South-East Texas literary landscape. I still keep contact with Prof. John Gorman, who teaches at UH Clearlake and was a special guide for me. He usually attends the Fest, so if you meet him, give him my greetings and continued admiration for his work with the Galveston Roundtable.
Good work. Regards wkg
