Superfan and more at LitCrawl!

This will come as a shock to CAAM readers – but I actually participate in ANOTHER festival in San Francisco! And it’s not even film-related!
I’m excited about LitQuake this year, as it marks the third time I’ve been asked to perform my poetry with the editors and writers of INDIVISIBLE, the first-ever, prize-winning South Asian American Poetry Anthology that was published in 2010. We will be performing in Phase 2 of LitCrawl.
Afterwards, traipse down the Mission for Phase 3 – for “Hyphen Magazine Interprets the South”. It should be a great evening of Literary Adventure. LitQuake is one of the premier literary events in the country – hope to see you there! (If you’re interested, I’ll have copies of my book, a fox peeks out, for sale at the event.) Editor’s note: Congrats to Ravi for winning a Honorable Mention for Poetry at the 2012 SF Book Festival!
