Monday, 10 October, 6:30pm Reading and Q&A with Dale Peck of Mischief + Mayhem at the Poisson Rouge, 158 Bleecker Street



Dale: The series is called Unprintable. We're asking people to read things that either haven't been published because the writer was afraid to or editors told her that it was in some way unfit for print, or things that have been published after weathering some resistance from either the writer or the publishing industry. From what you've told me about Lightning Rods' history, it seems perfect for the series. . .
