Readings are important ways to hear what the latest, hottest authors are producing.
Readings are also excellent places to find out how to perform your work. If you have not been able to attend readings because of work and other good excuses, or if you have more than 4 absences, you may make up for some of these events by watching three videos, and doing writer-focused reactions to those. Because I am flexible, I will count 2 hour plays or 2 hour good movies as 2 readings. Samuel Beckett's End Game. Videos on Toni Morrison.
