Hank Henderson at Homo-Centric

Hank Henderson gave us three wildly engaging writers last night in his monthly Homo-Centric event at Stories Books in Echo Park.

Wayne Hoffman reads from "Sweet Like Sugar" at Stories in Echo Park

First up was my good friend Wayne Hoffman from New York, who is on a book tour with his latest book, “Sweet Like Sugar.” Wayne read two selections, one, a flashback to gay teen unease, and the other, a college hook-up narrative taking place in Miami. Both were from the lead character, Benji’s, point of view. I haven’t read the book yet but am already in love with Benji! Wayne’s also reading tonight (Friday, October 21) at 7 pm at Q Trading in Palm Springs, and tomorrow night (Saturday, October 22) he will be back in L.A. on the west side at the Barnes and Noble at Westside Pavilion (Pico and Westwood) at 7 pm.

Eriq Moreno reads at Stories in EP

Third was Eriq Moreno, who made his reading debut at Homo-Centric! He read a short story of the day-in-the-life of a resident of L.A.’s skid row. Congratulations, Eriq, I know we’re going to be hearing much more from you.

Thanks again to Hank Henderson who fiercely holds space for Queer Words every month in L.A. It’s amazing what he’s created in a little over a year and a half!

Writers will be heard – whether there are "bookstore" readings or not.

Nowhere Like Home for Gay Writers

Loved reading this Daily News piece about the entrepreneurial spirit of the gays and the NY Latino writers in particular. This reminded me a lot of Hank Henderson’s Homo-Centric in Los Angeles, held at Stories Books & Cafe in Echo Park once a month. (Check out that link for the upcoming event at the West Hollywood Book Fair!) I know Hank started these readings in large part because of the closing of A Different Light in West Hollywood, which left Los Angeles without a bona fide GLBTQI (m-i-c-, k-e-y, ooops) place for appropriate readings. Is this a trend? Are there other alternative places in additional cities springing up, too? Let me know if you know….

I’d love to see more people feel obligated to “bring diversity to a brutally gentrified neighborhood,” wherever it may happen to be. Not sure that Echo Park qualifies in that regard vis a vis the East Village — at least not yet. Just sayin’
