LDM8 was fantastically filled with poetry, and Rupert Estanislao swiped the crown. Read the excitements here.

Now we ready for the All-Star Literary Death Match (Episode 9) which will double as the release party for Opium6: Go Green! (But Save Me First). We won’t dare tell you the particulars, but expect an LDM like never before featuring past champions, the return of hilarious judges, a finale that will end in crying laughter, and (we’re not kidding when we say this) more!

Hosted by LDM co-creator Todd Zuniga (after his accidental move to Brooklyn), participants include Stephen Elliott, Kirk Read, Jon Wolanske, Kurt Bodden, Sam Hurwitt, Andrew Lam, Tony DuShane and more!

Cost: $10 (and a free copy of Opium6: Go Green! (But Save Me First)
