92nd Sreet Y reading

On April 7, at 7 p.m., in room S101 at the 92nd Street Y, I will read with several other poets in the culminating event for a poetry course that I have been taking with Grace Schulman. For the past several months, I have been meeting with Grace one-on-one, as have the other members of the class. We shared at the beginning of the course; this is a talented group. The April 7th reading at the Y will showcase work that we have written or revised thanks to Grace's excellent tutelage. If you're free, it's free. I hope to see you there!

Flash Mob Poetry

Since spring is springing up everywhere, I am thinking of organizing some flash mob poetry readings at locations around the city Readers could their own work or the work of other poets. If you're interesting in participating or being informed of when and where the mobs o' poesy will happen, please shoot me an email.
