Seven Minutes in Heaven is a reading series of short fiction and nonfiction in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Three to four readers plus one *wild-card* reader will each dazzle you in seven minutes or less. Most readers are Oklahoma-based, but an occasional regional guest or writer passing through Tulsa will join.
