Reading at Poetry Cafe

Posted on October 18th, 2006 by Niki

The BBK Rebels, as my friend tagged us, performed the other night at the Poetry Cafe. Despite initial jitters, it was great fun and I enjoyed it. The voice of each writer was evident in the reading of their stories. What a great bunch! Looking forward to more.
