Quincy, I just want to inform you that your essay is hilarious and very much on point.
Jake (hi!), I agree with Jayne. If you can work out how to entertain people with performance, then just perform the shit out of your poems, and bring your book along.
(Actually, if anybody has advice about how to book a performance venue when visiting an unfamiliar city, I would love to hear it. I'm great at getting invited back to things, but awful at cold calling people, or even working out whom to cold call.)
