Tour Dates Added, Autostraddle, Lilypad Performance!

It’s been a busy month in the Najva Sol-verse. But here’s the updates:

1. Tour dates have been added to the Love, Inshallah  book tour! The feedback has been absolutely *breathtaking* and I’m proud to announce that I’ll be reading at:

HARVARD (Cambridge)- Feb 13th, COLUMBIA (NYC)- Feb 15th, BLUESTOCKINGS (NYC)- Feb 16th, and BUSBOYS & POETS (DC)- Feb 20th.

2. Autrostraddle included my work in a post called “Art Attack: 100 Queer Women Artists in Your Face!”- next to a mix of goddesses Catherine Opie & Frida Khalo, and other google-worthy emerging artists. I’m number 21- with a Lomography photo of  Katie, the  Babes of NPR blog-mastermind.

3. I’m playing a show with my Let Bloom EP partner-in-song Natti Vogel at the Lilypad in BOSTON this SUNDAY FEB 12th.  More information on the show is available here.


I’ve been counting so many lucky stars that I’m amassing galaxies in my pockets.

Event: Reading Thursday, Dec 9th at UC Berkeley

It’s at UC Berkeley. I’ll be reading, as well as two other local artists (hip hop/poetry & Urdu poetry) and there will be a panel with Wajahat Ali + Ishmael Reed.

More info after the jump. Continue reading
