A great “final” reading at Sac State by departing professor Peter Grandbois was a retrospective of sorts, as he generously read from the works of his colleagues who, as he put it, he ended up writing “in conversation” with. He read what he called “PPFF” pieces–prose poetry/flash fiction. Work by Doug Rice, Josh McKinney, Steve Owen, and yours truly. I was very honored to be included in this esteemed group, and was able to surreptitiously film it with my little pink cybershot. Sorry for the shakiness.

I have no idea why this is sideways, but it sounds fine. At least no more sideways than anything else I’ve ever heard Peter read.
