7:30-9:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 16
at the Rickshaw Stop, 155 Fell Street (@Van Ness), San Francisco

I’ll be reading from my historical novel A Woman of Ill Fame at the Rickshaw Stop, a venue in San Francisco that has hosted Jonathan Richman (need I say more?) and is described on its website as “your weird uncle’s rumpus room.” The event is part of a new reading series organized by James Warner, and I’ll be one of five readers, including good friend Kemble Scott. The theme of the night is sexuality, and since my book is about a Gold Rush prostitute, I guess we’re a match!
