[Simon Hunt]

Dear Friends--

I hope those of you within striking distance of California's Central Coast might consider attending one of the following (hell, make a weekend of it!):

1) The official launch party and reading for my first book of poems, Lesser Magi (Hummingbird Press, 2018), at The Lab (in The Barnyard Shopping Center), Carmel, California--June 9 at 5 p.m. The suggested donation (for the venue) will be $5, but nobody who wants to attend will be turned away for lack of funds or unwillingness to donate. Refreshments will be provided, and books will be for sale ($15). I'll read for a bit and sign for anybody who asks. Done by 6:30, I should think.

2) A reading the following day, June 10, at 2 p.m. in Monterey, at Old Capitol Books: Simon Hunt and Stephen Kessler. Suggested Donation: $5 again. We each read for about half an hour.

I'll bump this thread in a month's time to provide the addresses...

All best, and--as ever--my thanks for this community.

--Simon
