It was another one of those rainy San Francisco nights, as Beth Lisick read from Everybody Into The Pool about keeping drug pushers off her back, and transferring her belongings into a shopping cart to avoid falling human waste from a residential hotel. Kemble Scott read from SoMa, the scene where his bisexual hero goes through a terrifying gay ordeal, body hair trimming. Renaissance man and polymath Jim Nisbet read a poignant story set in the old Mission Rock, a waterfront bar from the days of longshoremen and Harry Bridges. Jennifer Blowdryer covered Naan'n'Curry, cremation, and sex worker parties, among other things. Manuel Jimenez rode the perfect wave at Ocean Beach. |
