Hello gays: Have you written a poem recently? Do you want to speak that lyrical prose out loud, to other people even? Have I got the place for you. Burnet Road denizen Birdhouse brings their open mic back for another round of queer poet fun. They’ve got ATX-based authors on the roster, too: lit mag The Repositorium editor Plumalia Henson and traveling bookstore owner Martyna Dearing. Both are promoting current paperback projects, with Henson’s The Book of Venus and Dearing’s Love, Death, and In Between and No Title Yet available on Birdhouse shelves for interested buyers. – James Scott
