In tarot news, please catch me at Venus Envy this coming weekend (Friday, August 16th and Saturday, August 17th), where I'll be giving tarot readings for just $10 each. We have changed locations, so don't look for us at the Mad Art Gallery any longer: now Venus Envy can be found at 2720 Cherokee, South City. I hope you'll stop by. These events are always breath-taking fire-breathing belly-dancing burlesque-bending fun!
After a great presentation on Plath's "The Courage of Shutting-Up" in Washington DC this past January, two Popular Culture Conferences have asked me to speak again this Fall: October 3-5th I will be in Savannah, Georgia presenting on "Sylvia Plath's Poem, 'The Jailor': an Empathic Journey to the Tower of London" and November 7-9th I will be in Atlantic City, New Jersey re-presenting my work on Plath's "The Detective" (this presentation first given at the University of London, June 2013). I am especially honored after learning that there was a huge number of submissions to present in Atlantic City.
I have had some very interesting comments to my essay, a guest blog on The Plath Diaries website. It is hard to know who is with me and who is against me over there! The academic world remains a largely humorless place. Ha ha.
The book continues to be finalized for its spring publication, and life gets more exciting each day! Thank you for your interest in my work. I sincerely appreciate it.
