Famous Carols

There's Carole Lombard, Carol Burnett (who was the only person to ever reply to my fan letter with a line by line response to my many questions when I was 13), Channing (um, "hello"...of course). There's the story of Carol Brady, Carroll O'Connor, and this time of year all types of Christmas carols.

Then there's Dark Carols. Imagine this: The Central Library in Los Angeles. The Mark Taper Auditorium. The Aloud Series. Me....in the center seats between a library aficionado & a man who knew Philip Littell (from where? from when? We never found out). Lights up on a stage bare except for a piano & microphone. But wait, I don't need to describe it because the Aloud series recorded it. So here for your holiday enjoyment is Philip Littell & Peter Golub with their Dark Carols. Two versions...the video below & the Free MP3 download so you can carry Philip around in your pocket for the rest of the holidays.

what is homo-centric?

homo-centric is a monthly reading series curated by Hank Henderson. The series is hosted by Stories Books & Cafe in Echo Park and takes place the 3rd Thursday of every month. By offering this space for LGBTQI writers to gather & share their words we hope to create a renewed sense of community. There's a hunger for connection and a wonder about our collective history that needs to be nurtured and continued.
