My guest post on Queer Visibilities appears today in the Pank blog. Please read & comment -- this is intended to generate conversation.

I finally made it to Quickies (hip and fantastic Chicago reading series) last night and enjoyed it quite a bit, although I do not think my life is well-suited to events that last until 10:00 on weeknights. My partner ate dinner w/o me and left it on the stove for when I got home ...And I've got another, similarly late evening tomorrow... my fabulous friend Donna D Vitucci is in town for the Another Chicago Magazine release party, and I am looking forward to meeting her.
