DORIS ZINE READING - SATURDAY APRIL 16 at 7 PM

NC zine maker and all-around great person Cindy will be reading and performing some solo acoustic music (as Dear Kyoko) at the store Saturday evening. Microcosm Publishing in Portland, Oregon has published an anthology of her zine Doris, 320 pages of honest writing about life in the years 1991-2001. Her other band, Trouble Trouble Trouble, is playing in town later in the evening, but we still don't know exactly where, yet.

Microcosm says, "She makes writing about the simplest and most common things - playing music, childhood, cooking, or sex, resonate with universal understanding. She helps us make sense of more complex things like the satisfaction from doing useful work, natural curiosity, the ability to use logic, gender dynamics, introspection, the need for challenge and change, combating depression, and creating art and literature. She shares and explores the emotions that go along with having an abortion, rape, dealing with the death of family, or sexual harrassment in a context that is enlightening and personal, feeling like a close friend opening up to you."
