Nicolette Opal Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 If any of you are going to be in or around Chicago next month, you should come to the show. To cheer for me, yes, but also to see National Book Awards finalist Bonnie Jo Campbell. And a real Hemingway! Find out more here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolette Opal Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 You, Megan, and the kids should come down! Edit: Well, maybe not the kids. The show is in a bar/club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolette Opal Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I don't know if we're going to allow the "blah blah blahs" at the championships, because of last year's mess. But if we do, PLEASE, YES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Robinson Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Ha! I'd love to take on a personal project like that. I wouldn't even know where to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Find someone you know with a venue/space. Find some writers. Get a blog. Go. It only gets complicated when you apply for gov. things, like becoming a registered, tax-exempt non-profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolette Opal Posted February 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 ONLINE VERSION OF THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE ARTICLE ON THE STORY SLAM FINALS! ...and now all of greater Chicagoland (and parts beyond) know a chunk of my sordid past.

Missy Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) Ah, so that's what Bill was talking about yesterday. With a big smile, he told me to check out the Trib. And though I knew it was about the Slam, I wasn't sure if he took out an ad, or if an article was written about y'all. Glad it was the latter. EDIT: Holy shit! I just realized that's a photo Tim took! Did they use it in the print version, too? Edited February 25, 2010 by The Master Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
