I had a fun time at yesterday’s reading at Parthenon Books in Syracuse. The crowd was sparse, likely due to the Syracuse Arts & Crafts Festival taking place in the downtown area.

But I signed some copies of my book, Stunted: A Memoir of Delayed Manhood, which are available for sale at the store. I also caught up with a former colleague from SU, Stephen, and we chatted about poetry, writing, and film (just like we used to do in the break room at work).

And I used my store credit to purchase Calvin Trillin’s novel Tepper Isn’t Going Out.
