Hello.

I had a harddrive failure not quite two weeks ago and have had to go back to using an older computer until I find a way to recover my data. Hence the delay in getting this newsletter out.

I have two performances coming up in the next two weeks. If you are more moved by my poetry, proceed to [1]; if your find my movement more poetic, proceed to [2]; if you want to know what is in store a few months down the road, proceed to [3]
