Good news from InDigest and InDigest 1207 is Tuesday night

Over at the InDigest Blog we've just posted some good news. A story originally published in InDigest has one a Best of the Net award, and two poems from InDigest were finalists for the awards (Nicole Callihan, Ada Limón, and Erica Wright, respectively).

InDigest has also just been made an official member of CLMP (Council of Literary Magazine Presses).

And most importantly, tonight (kind of tomorrow right now, but soon to be tonight) is InDigest 1207 w/ poets CA Conrad and Laura Sims, and essayist Daniel Nester. As per usual things kick off with drinks at 6:30, words at 7. It's free and will be at (le) Poisson Rouge on Bleecker.

InDigest Issue 11

Issue 11 is now up, and our contributors in the Narratives section find, through their fiction, new and interesting ways to deal with relationships gone south, and our Poetics section contributor expresses his joy at your appearance in that crown! We also bring you the beautiful work of Sougwen Chung in our Gallery, and welcome back our series InDialogue, where writers and artists talk to each other about, well, anything they want to talk to each other about. Here, two long-time members of the InDigest family, Meakin Armstrong and Sam Osterhout, discuss, among other things, the fate of the funny man, growing old, and why Meakin’s characters don’t have enough sense to get themselves out of the damn basement.

And remember, if you're in New York stop by (le) Poisson Rouge the first Wednesday of every month for the InDigest 1207 reading series, where in June we will be welcoming Stephen Burt, Angela Ball, Rodrigo Toscano, and Giao Buu (and later this summer, John Wray, Marlon James, Ronaldo V. Wilson, and Geoff Herbach).
