AWP is so early this year!

I've made no plans. I'm not even sure who's going.

Make your plans, dang it! Now Friday night is all scheduled for you. There.

There's a NEOMFA reception on Thursday night too. I'll send you an invite. There will be live music.

I do agree that it is way too early this year. I already feel so behind and the semester hasn't even started yet.

I'm Alan King, a writer living in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. I have a chapbook Transfer that I hope you will consider reviewing. Writing samples are available at http://myspace.com/alanking81 and http://myspace.com/bustransfer.

If after reading the samples you are interested in reviewing Transfer, please provide a mailing address for me to send a copy.

Thank you in advance. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Until then,
Alan.
