JAMI ATTENBERG is the author of two books of fiction, Instant Love and The Kept Man. Her work, both fiction and nonfiction, has appeared in Jane, Print, New York, Nylon, Radar, Salon, Nextbook, Time Out NY, Five Chapters, Smokelong Quarterly, 3: AM Magazine, and Spork, as well as in a number of anthologies, including Sex for America. Her third book, The Melting Season, will be published by Riverhead Books in the future. She lives in Brooklyn, and has been blogging for more than a decade at whatever-whenever.net.
ANN CARR is an actress, comedian, and character maven. Her previous one-woman shows include "The Winner's Circle" and "There is Only One You." Her latest solo show, currently at The Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, is called "Use It." Because if you find yourself crying openly in a Starbucks about the webisode audition you just went on, you need to find a way to channel that shit. Ann has a blog called Ann Carr is Living Her Life at anncarr.blogspot.com.
LIAM MCENEANEY has appeared on Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" and was a regular panelist on VH1's "Best Week Ever." Liam was head writer for The Humor Network, where his work was read on a regular basis by about two-and-a-half million readers. One of them worked at a vineyard and sent him two free bottles of wine. That was cool. Liam tours the country regularly, performing stand-up comedy and helping strangers solve their problems. He can also be seen every week at Tell Your Friends!, a free comedy show at Lolita Bar. Liam is also online at kidliam.blogspot.com.
Since 2009, How I Learned has featured some of the best live storytelling, comedy, and readings in New York City. It all happens a couple of times a year, and sometimes more than that, which basically means you'll have the best night of you life on those nights, repeatedly.
YOUR HOST:
Blaise Allysen Kearsley is a Brooklyn-based writer and the creator, producer, and host of How I Learned, which has been a thing for a super long time. She has performed at The Moth, RISK!, Mortified, Literary Death Match, and many other shows. Her writing has appeared in Longreads, Midnight Breakfast, VICE, The Weeklings, The Nervous Breakdown, two anthologies, and in several other places a long time ago that don't even exist anymore, and are perhaps not worth mentioning by name. She also teaches creative nonfiction to other so-called grownups. Learn how to pronounce all three of her names at blaiseallysenkearsley.com.
