GRS Teams Up With GSP for ROTFLMAO Good Time | Vernacular ...

Acronym overload alert! This Friday, the GRS/GSP (Graduate Students for Publishing?it?s new, and promises to be sweet) are teaming forces and budgets to bring you lots of food and beverages and literary sensations beyond your wildest dreams. The food/drink selection will be some old and some new. If you?ve never been to a GRS, this is the one to see. If you?re knee deep in thesis-work, this is the break you?ve been yearning for. And if your a GRS regular, we?ve got everything you love, and more. Here are the reader bios.

Grace Schauer?is a music note printed in small type to indicate that she is melodically and harmonically nonessential. ?She was born in 1815 and wrote her first poems shortly after. ?Having stretched a two-year program past all decency and reason, she will graduate in May.

After his undergraduate years at Baker University,?Keith Gaboury?earned a MA inEnglish / creative writing at San Francisco State University. He?s currently attendingEmerson College?s MFA program. Keith will be reading from a collection of ekphrasticpoetry, outer space-theme poems and a persona poem in the voice of an animal. Come tothe GRS and guess who is speaking!

Kelly Addams?is a first year MFA student. She will be reading fiction.

Andy Dost?is a second year in the publishing program, taking odd jobs as they come. He sticks to a need-to-know clause on all contracts and will not pry into business practices or blow whistles. Odd jobs include writing nonfiction, editing, coding, high-security exchanges of goods, and otherwise. Whistle-making companies need not apply.

Nicole Miller?is a final year MFA student in fiction, who is currently writing a novel and a memoir. ?She grew up in New York city, near Washington Square, which is also the setting of the novel excerpt she will be reading at the GRS. ?For recent writing online, you can check out her article, ?Cavafy in Paradise?, on translating the Alexandrian poet C.P. Cavafy at the House of Literature in Paros, Greece, last summer:http://www.emerson.edu/academics/academic-services/graduate-studies/department-news/creative-writing-student-attends-translation-workshop-greece

Lauren Johnson:?Due to some confusion over where in the world is the real Lauren Johnson, we?ve been delayed in obtaining a bio. It?s coming soon!
