Just a quick note that one of our favorite contributors, Ally Malinenko, will be reading her poetry tomorrow in Pittsburgh. She’ll be at Awesome Books on Liberty Avenue at 1 pm with three other poets, so check it out if you’re in the Steel City.

And if you’re not able to make it, then read some of her great prose on JDP instead, like maybe “Devil’s Arcade,” or very possibly “The Bargain,” and most definitely “Paper Heart.”

(Oh, and don’t forget about her upcoming MG novel, Lizzy Speare and the Cursed Tomb. It debuts this month from Antenna Books.)
