I heart The Camel Saloon: Last night, I visited the Camel Sports Bar (#1 Yueyang Lu, Xuhui, Shanghai), not only for some pub grub and beer, but to score a photo of the place via the request of Russell Streur, editor over at the literary journal, The Camel Saloon, which has/is publishing some of my poems. Anyway, the magazine showcases various shots of actual camels, but also camel-themed bars around the world, sent in by readers/contributors, so I joined the fun, and sent a couple of shots off to Russell, who’s using one of them as the journal’s new masthead. Pretty cool! Also cool is that my 2011 chapbook, The Breakdown Atlas & Other Poems, is now listed in The Camel Saloon Bookstore, with a link to purchase at Big Table Publishing. Awesome! Please head on over to this literary watering hole, to read some work by its very talented writers, peruse the photos from around the world, and perhaps submit some of your own work. I promise you will love the atmosphere, and enjoy a warm welcome from editor/barkeep extraordinaire, Russell Streur. Here’s a link to the journal. Cheers! http://thecamelsaloon.blogspot.com/

Photo Exhibit for The Camel Saloon

Sun, 07 Apr 2013 21:05:24 +0800

Photo Exhibit for The Camel Saloon:

Bolivian photo exhibit I did for The Camel Saloon, at the link above. I love editor Russell Streur’s write up (thanks, Russell!):

Dear Saloonatics:

The Cocaine Museum, the Train Graveyard, the Guardian Bird and Grandmother Bowler.

Where do all the good things in life end up?

Bolivia.

And the Camel Saloon is totally delighted today to announce the opening of a new photographic exhibition at the joint: a festive, colorful and all around lovely journey to La Paz, the Salt Flats and all points within shouting distance, created especially for the tavern by the festive, colorful and all around lovely Lauren Tivey.

Please dust off the hiking boots and go climbing with the Shanghai gypsy herself at: http://eyeonbolivia.blogspot.com/

And feel free to stop by the other photography exhibtions, too:
