I can't mention much about the reading until it's over, so I'll just say that we are going to be extremely busy for the next five days. Mother Nature did not help; some readers never made it to Louisville.
On the upside, Louisville Slugger Field is simply beautiful. Caught a pair of games between the Louisville Bats (Reds) and Toledo Mud Hens (Tigers). Hens won the first in 13 innings, but dropped the second by an 8-2 margin. I ran into one of the guys I read with in Daytona two years ago, a baseball, movie, and pop culture trivia guy (two of us in the same metro area - call the nerd police), and we're going to check some of the other local attractions this week.
Lots of good food, as long as we don't eat what they're serving at the reading. Nothing to get excited about.
Photos to come, probably tomorrow.
After our first full day of reading, I've tackled 225 essays. I'm hoping to break 1100 this year, maybe 1200.
...You said "one". Instead of "won".
