The raucous
AlteredScale.com issue 3 Launch Reading, which began by quoting punk band The Magnolias—"complicated fun"—and ended with a fist-pumping yell, "Let's party," was not video recorded because of technical difficulties. Five of us who participated in the reading came over to christen my new apartment with a....party....and a reading. I made pesto, cole slaw salad, chicken, and guacamole. The Brannens brought fine cookies. Dan and Mary brought bread, cheese, and beer. I was even in dress pants. We were mighty bourgeois. A good time was had by all.
Jonathan Brannen will be the Featured Artist in AlteredScale.com 4. His poetry has been translated into three languages. He is also a visual poet, in addition to being an Americana and electronica musician. Two of his books are available at
TheAlteredScalePress.com.
{This is the first in a five-part series. All five of us are part of the Uptown Writers Group, which includes visual artists and musicians, in addition to writers. If you live in the Twin Cities area and would like to get involved, contact me at jh4090 (at) gmail.com.)
