News from the fabulous Brangien Davis at Swivel (I wish I could attend this event! It sounds like perfection):

SWIVEL: THE INDISCRETIONS ROAD SHOW!

Don’t miss this exclusive Seattle engagement at BUMBERSHOOT on LABOR DAY, September 5th, from 3:00-4:15pm in the Bagley Wright Theater (just off Mercer).

It’ll be the SENSORY OVERLOAD of the season–not to mention an excellent way to support literary arts!

**HEAR**
… stories of indiscretion both HARROWING and HILARIOUS… including trafficking in PORN, impersonating a DMV official, and reading a BOYFRIEND’S DIARY!

**SMELL**
… probably some stuff wafting in from the food booths!

**TASTE**
