Tuesday, October 26th: Ethan Saul Bull, Paul Maziar, and music by Jessie Aron

Kidnap returns, 60% more Autumn that last time!

/

Ethan Saul Bull lives and, thankfully, works in Portland, Oregon. He has graduated from college a couple of times--most recently from Arizona. His first book, entitled Inside Narratives, came out from BlazeVOX Books in 2010 and his work has appeared in several journals including Exquisite Corpse, EOAGH, Octopus Magazine, The Benefactor, and others. He feels close to the sea at the moment and has been said to love love, though he's not entirely sure what that means.

Paul G. Maziar is a writer & poet, and works as a bell-hop. Born in the desert of Southern Nevada, he lived in Los Angeles, New York New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, and has found his new home in Portland OR. His first book was published in 2008, titled WHAT IT IS: WHAT IT IS. It is a collaborative work, consisting of experimental prose and the typographic & photographic treatments of his friend, the artist Matt Maust. Paul self-published his first chapbook of poems, Last Light of Day, which sold quickly and is now being put out as a full-length collection, by Publication Studio in Portland Or. He's been curating a monthly reading series in Portland, and is currently involved in an ongoing workshop taught by poet Hoa Nguyen. He writes and edits a poetry blog called Don’t Fog the Feelers.

Jessie Aron goes to culinary school, and that's the main thing. She also plays music and sings in Ocean Age, which is, like, electronic chamber music with natural sounds. And then sometimes she plays quiet girlish folk music by herself or with other girls.
