KEY TO THE CITY Reading
🕑 Added 2022-05-13 22:54:03 +0000 UTCHello Everyone, happy weekend!
I wanted to read to you my essay for Los Angeles Review of Books new Spring Quarterly Journal called "Key to the City." I read it at the launch party two Saturdays ago, but I wanted you to hear it, and myself as well, since I got so much positive feedback afterward.
The day before yesterday I had another essay accepted by Parabola magazine, who twice now, take only 2 days to respond to a submission! My piece for them is called "The Only Black Person in the Room" and is for the coming fall issue on the theme Belonging. I wrote for them last fall on the theme of "Fire" where I talked about when the family home burned to the ground.
The essay I am reading for you above for LARB is on the theme "What is L.A.?"
Hope you enjoy the reading!
LOVE! And happy full moon Lunar Eclipse on Sunday!
