Washington DC!

I will be doing an event next Weds (11/19) for Lessons in Magic and Disaster. It's at As You Are, a wonderful queer space, and hosted by Little District Books. I would consider it a huge personal kindness if you spread the word.

my personal soundtrack shifts in mysterious ways that may reflect my inner workings in ways i don't fully understand.

i just shifted hard from months of dark synth / ebm into the distant land of gentle queer singer songwriters -- a hard swerve that portends something, i'm sure
