recently deceased

15 June 2007. Inspired by deadly pursuits.

I'm in the town of Alfred, deep in New York State, for Ninth International Obituary Writers Conference, where I'm doing a reading from my next ditty.

Alfred is a small town, most notable perhaps for the other big event to be celebrated here: a 30th anniversary parade to celebrate its only traffic light. It's gridlock, man.

More, possibly here, but more likely at the fine blog of the newly bearded Andrew McKie.
