Even as we are in the throes of organizing, scheduling and producing the #90X90LA that begins 7/5/17 and stretches all the way through to the very beginning of October, the fact is it’s been difficult for us at Writ Large Press to say exactly what Summer 2014 was (it was so many things, yet so simple). …
There haven’t been many weeks since the summer of 2014 ended in which I haven’t thought about or someone hasn’t reminded me of #90for90, that time we did 90 events over 90 days in a train station bar.

We will do it with a PUBLISH! event, to bring the entire endeavor—90 literary, musical, cultural events over 90 consecutive nights—back to whom it belongs: you. Join us at Traxx Bar for one final time and get published. There will be all …

Not the triple take, and definitely not a quadruple take, although this video of Patrick Stewart is the single greatest video of all time: [embedvideo id=”XFMrBldVk0s” website=”youtube”] What I mean is, this happened: We had to move DTLAB to another location.
