The Teachers Tournament is in reruns right now–last week was the quarterfinals, and this week we have three days of semifinals and then the two-day final.  So I’ll wait to finish this account until the reruns are over.

Two events for your consideration:

• Chevalier’s Books in Larchmont Village here in Los Angeles presents a reading on Thursday, September 7, at 7 PM with poets Charif Shanahan and Victoria Chang and fiction writer Siel Ju.
• I am so excited to be reading with Lisa Rosenberg at Florey’s Book Company in Pacifica, California, on the beautiful Bay Area coast.  7:30 PM, Saturday, September 16.  There’s an open mic, too!
