We will not be doing a Q and A after tonight's reading,
but hold on to your Qs and bring them up here for the As--
after you, perhaps, buy one of our readers' lovely debut books
over here at the table.
Marc and Jackie will be happy to sell you one or several,
or a couple, or whatever.
The whole range is possible.
So without further ado, I would like to introduce Ander Monson,
who is a writer and a professor, and the current director
of the U of A MFA Creative Writing program,
disc golf aficionado, sharp dresser,
and for tonight's purposes, the curator of the '16-'17 UA Prose
Series.
So please help me welcome Ander.
