Nagoya Writes Open Reading Review
January, 2012
Finally a break in the weather and a good turn out.
There was more in the audience than Readers this time.
The Open Reading was the second of a three part afternoon.
First the Writers Critique, and after the New Year Party at the
pizza restaurant.
Open Reading:
Tom Baurele ( USA )
prose ~ Love in the time of Apocalypse ~
One more replay of “Baby” and if the cosmos does not self destruct,
then there is no God. I leave the grand decision up to your wise counsel.
Shoichi Miyamura ( Japan )
poem ~ Plum Wine ~ by Kotaro Takamura
The night wind has stopped.
Albert Sussler ( USA )
prose ~ Collecting Bells ~
It sound, a dull thunk, that reacts to the bumps I pass over.
joke ~ Skunks In and Out~
When In was out, Out was in.
~ Sleeping Scotsman ~
I don’t know where you have been but what ever you did you got first prize.
Tim Chambers ( USA )
prose ~ The Wild Party ~
Your on a mission to save my life and you need all these bags to have
something for dinner to wear.
Brett Hack ( USA ) debut
prose ~ Grocery Store Romanie Amalgamation
His sweat secreted like a toad.
Vash Bandy ( USA )
prose ~Girl and Mr Tanaka ~
Girl has good skin, somewhere between Halle Berry and Beyonce but bad hair.

Thanks always Hitomi, Jose, and Mike of Mondo Books.
Due to the financial difficulties a 500 yen cover charge is needed
to help keep Mondo Books alive. This is a great location
for our literary efforts and I encourage everyone in the International Community
to support their establishment.
Thanks, for the good turn out and potent reads.
Thanks for al your suggestions on building a structure for the NW. I am working
them.
Help to spread the word.
cheers
Albert Sussler.
