What to Expect
The event is one hour long. There are 7-8 confirmed reading slots.
Each Reader will share 1-3 poems or a prose excerpt (500-800 words) aiming between 3-6 minutes of reading time.
The first poem will be from the issue. (If reading prose, please provide 1-2 sentences of context before any prose-excerpt readings, as not to exclude your listeners—but please budget this in your time.)
Feel free to engage in the chat with lines you loved or encouragement during & in between readings, but please stay muted until all readers have read.
All events are recorded. A replay goes out to all subscribers.
These are public events, so feel free to share and invite family & friends to join and support.
