Standing Room Only

Our January 18th Launch Party for Brevity & Echo was a huge success.




Thank you to Grub Street, Pam Painter, Emerson College, and all of our wonderful readers for making it happen, and to Beth Rooney for photographing it all.

The crowd begins to arrive at Grub Street Headquarters.



Abby & Kathy get ready to introduce the readers...



...including the evening's emcee, Pamela Painter...



...but nobody wants to sit in the empty chair...



...except for the photographer who photographs Stace Budzko, telling us "How to Set a House on Fire"...



...Jennifer Carr reading "Green Grass: a Fable"...



...Erin Dionne reading "New Rollerskates"...



...Tara Masih reading "Huldi"...



...Bob Steinberg reading "Fancy Footwork," all 55 words of it...



...Jacqueline Holland reading "Mimi"...



...Laura van den Berg reading "Girl Talk"...



...Mary Saliba reading..."What I Have to Remember"...



...and Chris Helmuth reading "Tulip."



There were more Brevity & Echo authors than we could fit into one party, and here they are raising their hands. You can hear more of them at Brookline Booksmith on February, 19th and at AWP in Atlanta on March 2nd.



And we couldn't have sold books without our volunteer booksellers, Kate Covintree (seated at the book table), Mary Longer (not pictured), and Emily Frey (not pictured).
