One benefit of being married to another poet is our shared understanding of the complexity of writing. While our processes are not entirely the same, we both know the yearning of wrangling a particular impulse into words and the deep pleasure when the words flow. We each also know the frustration of not getting it right or not having the opportunity to get it down at all. We might have married people who were creative in different ways or not married at all. But our shared understanding and desire for excellence in our art is deeply unifying.
Our next appearance will be Sun., Feb. 23, in Reston, VA, 5:30-6:30pm. Our friend, fellow writer, Eric Goodman will also be reading. Hosted by Nathan Leslie @ Reston Used Book Shop, 1623 Washington Plaza North, Reston, VA 20190. Followed by an open mic.
After that, we’re back to PA on Thursday, March 6, 6 pm-8 pm. We will feature @ Berks Bards at the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts, 201 Washington Street, Reading PA 19601. Followed by an open mic.
Then we dash down to Maryland’s Eastern Shore for the Bay to Ocean Conference on March 8 where we will host the evening’s open-mic event. For more information: https://www.easternshorewriters.org/event-5975520
