In this YouTube video, Lois Letchford introduces herself as the author of Reversed: A Memoir and Illiteracy Problem Solver, then reads Jack Palutski's poem "I Thought I Spotted Bigfoot" from his collection Monday Stroll. She vividly narrates the imagined encounter with a towering, hairy Bigfoot, describing its massive feet, imposing height, and greasy fur, before the creature vanishes when she blinks. Lois concludes the reading by acknowledging she may have been mistaken, thanks the audience, and delivers standard channel calls to action—liking, subscribing, enabling notifications, and purchasing her memoir. The video serves both as a literary performance and a self‑promotion platform.

Hello, I am Lois Letchford, author of the book Reverse to Memoir and Illiteracy Problem Solver, reading dragon poems. And this week it's from Jack Palutski's Monday Stroll. I Thought I Spotted Bigfoot. I thought I spotted Bigfoot right behind me in the street. There was no way I could miss him. He had 2 gigantic feet. He was utterly imposing, standing 10 feet tall or more. And was surely no imposter, though we'd never met before. Every inch of him was covered with a greasy mat of hair. When I blinked my eyes in wonder, Bigfoot was no longer there. Still, I'm certain that I saw him. He looked ravenous and strong, but he simply isn't here now. So I guess that I was— Wrong. Thank you.
