Join Nick Miele and other Fairfield University students tomorrow night as they celebrate the October opening of the university's new bookstore. Located on the site of the old Borders in downtown Fairfield, the new off-campus location is operated by Barnes & Noble and will be hosting "Stories, Stories, Stories", presenting selected essays, poetry and short fiction read by Nick and others newly-enrolled in the school's MFA in Creative Writing program.
Using his contributions to PoemAlley to dissect the subtlety with which the day-to-day and large-scale political worlds trade off one another's dysfunctionality, Nick works in Stamford, where he uses his Air Force background to provide technical analysis services at Aircastle, LLC, a company that leases and sells commercial jets to air carriers worldwide.
For a sampling of his poetry and literary commentary, go

Wordsmiths: A Gaggle of Poets under "Associated Links" on the left.
Among the highlights of the evening will be excerpts from
Where the Tall Grass Grows, a novel-in-progress set in Mali by award winning writer and editor, Adele Annesi. Nick's Ridgefield-based classmate also runs a monthly online workshop on editing from her blog,
