The Lost & Found Show’s “Weapons” Edition
![](https://lpr.com/wp-content/themes/LPRv2/images/placeholder.gif)
Each month’s show is based on a typical object – hats, wallets, cigarettes. Things that end up in a lost and found box. These things tell stories, whether lost memories or made-up tales. They reflect our lives, where we come from, and where we’re going.
The show is a creative meeting of the minds: we’ve featured authors, bloggers, actors, cabaret singers, magicians, comedians, travel writers, psychedelic gurus, TED talk speakers, Moth storytellers, burlesque performers, and even a ukulele player.
If you have a story that you want to share, take a look at their Submissions page, and send in your story.

Donna Minkowitz is the author of the memoir Growing Up Golem: How I Survived My Mother, Brooklyn and Some Really Bad Dates, which was a finalist for both a Lambda Literary Award and the Publishing Triangle’s Judy Grahn Nonfiction Award. She won a Lammy for her first memoir, Ferocious Romance. Minkowitz once disguised herself as a 16yearold evangelical boy to report on a convention of the Promise Keepers, the Christian right men’s group. According to director Kimberly Peirce, the movie Boys Don’t Cry was inspired by Minkowitz’s article on the life and death of Brandon Teena. She’s written for the New York Times Book Review and performed at The Kitchen.

Myke Cole

As a security contractor, government civilian and military officer, Myke Cole’s career has run the gamut from Counterterrorism to Cyber Warfare to Federal Law Enforcement. He’s done three tours in Iraq and was recalled to serve during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. All that conflict can wear a guy out. Thank goodness for fantasy novels, comic books, late night games of Dungeons and Dragons and lots of angst fueled writing. His 4th novel, GEMINI CELL, is out January 2015
