Life~long Press At Book Zoo Friday April 25th 7pm

Please join us for a Life~long Press ~Celebration Reading~ at Book Zoo on Friday Evening~April 25th at 7pm ~ with /Back Room Live Magazine 2008/ Contributors~ Trevor Calvert ~Challen Clarke ~ Zach Demby ~ Eleanor Johnson ~ Blake Ellington Larson ~ Sarah Garrigan ~ We'll have copies available that evening for $8~

Blake Ellington Larson creates photographs, writes music and poetry. His most recent chapbook /Live-In Dreams/ has been eaten by the troll that is modern technology. He has since written more poems. He has recently quit smoking and resides in Oakland, CA.

Challen Clarke is named after a distant relative with a clubfoot who disappeared one day. So she limps and writes.

Sarah Garrigan is a student at the University of California at Berkeley working towards a degree in English. She is currently on the editorial staff of the Berkeley Poetry Review. After college, she looks forward to living in a box while discovering what exactly one can do with a B.A. in English. She enjoys reading everything that comes to hand, unobtrusively correcting grammatical errors, and compressing herself into brief biographical paragraphs.

Zach Demby has managed to keep all ten of his fingers, and most of his toes. His mother is verry proud.

Trevor Calvert lives in Oakland, has studied poetry at Mills, and is currently studying to be a librarian. Some of his writing can be found in /Bay Poetics/, VeRT www.litvert.com and /Loop 5/. He studies and teaches Japanese martial arts, is interested in puppets, and loves comic books.

Eleanor Johnson is an archive-spelunker and renegade medievalst, resident of Oakland, native of New York.
