<p>This month's readers include a lot of award winners. <a href="http://www.taniakatan.com">Tania Katan</a> wrote the award-winning memoir, <em>My One Night Stand With Cancer</em>, that inspired Melissa Ethridge to say: &ldquo;This book rocks! It&rsquo;s playful, passionate, and downright beautiful.&rdquo; For LDM SF, EP. 24, Ali Liebegott literally stepped in off the street to judge performance, and we wanted her back to read from her award-winning books <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Beautifully-Worthless-Ali-Liebegott/dp/0974638846">The Beautifully Worthless</a></em> and <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/IHOP-Papers-Ali-Liebegott/dp/B003156CA8/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_1">The IHOP Papers</a></em>. <a href="http://www.chriscolin.com">Chris Colin</a> is the award-winning author of <em>What Really Happened to the Class of '93</em>. Finally, <a href="http://www.chickenjohn.com">Chicken John</a>&nbsp;is a Showman living in San Francisco. He will be reading from his new book: <em>Fail... to Win! Essays of Engineered Disperfection.</em></p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.literarydeathmatch.com/upcoming-events/rss-comments-entry-6839265.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>March 11, 2010</title><category>Adam Davies</category><category>Clinton Powell</category><category>J.
