AWP Annual Conference 2011<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It’s hard to believe that a year has gone by since last year’s<\/a> AWP Conference in Denver, but the months have indeed flown and—it’s that time again!<\/p>\n

The editors of LR <\/em>have assembled a list of panels and readings we thought might be interest to readers and writers of Asian American poetry.<\/p>\n

Keep an eye out for us in particular at Kundiman’s panel on Friday at noon — we’ll have promotional materials and information about our off-site reading<\/a>, scheduled for Friday night at 7:30 PM.<\/p>\n

If you’re browsing the bookfair, you’ll also be able to find our materials at the Boxcar Poetry Review table.<\/p>\n

We look forward to seeing you in DC!<\/p>\n
