The fourth installment of Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids was, like each of the previous events, a lot of fun.
This time around, we moved to a new venue: The Gladstone Hotel Ballroom. It turned out to be a great room for the event, with (almost) enough seating.
It’s my constant fear that I’ll put […]
A message from Mara in my inbox tonight:
I’m very interested in attending the Grownups Read event on Monday, but the start time isn’t mentioned on the website. It would probably help if I knew when to show up.
I’ve had a couple of very valid questions like this over the past little while, so here’s a […]
I’m a little late posting this, seeing as the event was almost two weeks ago, but I have to say: the third Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids was an awful lot of fun.

Also, through an email from Neil at Mortified, I learned that our fledgling reading […]

8:00 PM on Monday, April 30, 2007
Upstairs at The Victory Cafe, 581 Markham Street, Toronto
That means you have about three weeks to clean out your closet, or dust off that shoebox of work from grade school, […]
Last Monday, upstairs at the Victory Cafe, I hosted the very first Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids — an evening of childhood poems, schoolwork, and diary readings. I was really worried that nobody would show up, and that I’d have to read from my Grade 1 journal all alone, for an hour.

Just in time for my poorly named evening of reading (Adults Read Things They Wrote as Kids), a package from my Mom arrived in the mail:
Inside, I found five scribblers.* They were all journals from elementary school at Sackville Centennial. There’s some great stuff inside, and I’m looking forward to reading from these on Monday. […]
