Side Trips

Friday, January 12

Team WUPPIE

Point and Shoot, Florida (YU)--Since they moved back to Florida, and Heap had a sabbatical (49 weeks), then a Last Ditch Attempt (LDA) grant (over a year), and now his SUB Fellow grant (six months), Heap had done a lot more travel, to promote his books, and writing opportunities, like conferences and book fairs, poetry readings and book-launch parties, had come more frequently.

Heap went to some of these by himself, but in others, he included Brenda, to help him, and to participate in the experience. He wanted to share with her what he was doing.

They went to a zine fest in Atlanta, and came home by way of Paradise Garden.

They went to a nature center in Alabama, about bought butterfly bushes.

They did an arts and crafts festival in Fairhope, Alabama, together, and Brenda shot some film of Heap sitting at a table outside a bookstore for the [secret project] Tom and Christina were making about him.

Also, they went to Springfest, and Potterfest, for the [secret project], and, now, they were going to New Orleans.

Oh yea, she filmed Heap reading his poems at the Gallery Above, in the pamphlet he wrote for the Howl protest, at Columbia.
