EVENT: POST LITERARY DEATH MATCH

On Wednesday night Irina Reyn competed for Ballyhoo Stories in Opium Magazine's sixth Literary Death Match. After some technical delays the fight began with Tony O'Neil squaring off against Maureen Tkacik. Tony emerged the winner of the first round. Irina Reyn faced off against Tao Lin. Irina's story of childhood goofiness triumphed. She then defeated Tony in an haiku-off and emerged the victor!! We at Ballyhoo Stories congratulate Irina on her success.

EVENT: LITERARY DEATH MATCH

On Wednesday, July 25th Ballyhoo Stories will be competing in Opium's Literary Death Match. This blood bath of fiction readings takes place at 6:30 in New York City's Washington Square Park. Battling for Ballyhoo Stories is the mighty Irina Reyn, whose story "Baba Yaga"appears in our "Crossroads and Weigh Stations Issue" . She'll be competing against Tony O'Neill for 3:AM, Maureen Tkacik for The Crier and He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named for Opium. We hope you'll join us as we cheer on Irina as she bludgeons the competition with her deadly prose.
