Pen World Voices

I'm on call for jury duty this week and in anticipation of being in a confined space with far too many idle people with cell phones handy, I have armed my iPod with downloads from the recent PEN American Center - PEN World Voices conference and plan to block out the cacophony with readings and discussion from a variety of once and future Rights Readers authors. I'm almost, ALMOST, looking forward to my civic duty. While you are visiting the site to download and listen online, check out this year's winners from the PEN prison writing contest. I like The Fan.
