A poetry reading that I'm a part of-- "you come, too..." (really, I need the emotional support...)






Hi, Friends!

So, most of you know that my first chapbook, What to Keep, is scheduled for release next February from Finishing Line Press. There are a lot of "hurdles" along the way in the next several months, and I will have more information closer to the fall, such as when the book will go on pre-sale. That said, I have to bite the bullet, screw my courage to the sticking point, and all of the other suck-it-up-buttercup bumper stickers and start putting my face --and my poems-- out there for people to get to know me. Otherwise, no one will buy the book, I won't make the pre-sale requirements, and the book will possibly not see the light of day (yeah, there are hurdles). 

I've been invited to be one of the readers for the tenth anniversary anthology from Smoky Quartz, which is a regional publication here in New Hampshire, based in the Monadnock area. They are lovely to work with, and they have published a few of my poems over the last couple of years. I'll be reading on Zoom, "alongside" other folks who have a lot more street-cred than I, so this is a little daunting and exciting at the same time. For you Frost Place folks, yes, that is THE George Drew! And Liz Ahl!

Have a super day,

C

Here's the details, and if you want the Zoom link, please let me know. I'd be happy to send it to you:
