Three events, a road trip, and lagniappe
Three Events
Thursday, September 25th from 5:30 - 8:00
I'll be leading the writing workshop, "Words in the Open Air,"
drawing on inspiration from the paintings in the Canton Museum's exhibit,
"Impressions en Plein Air" for adults & teens wanting to respond to art and to writers wanting advanced work in ekphrastic poetry, ending with a lesson on broadsides and materials to create one.
Info on registering:
Friday, October 3rd all day
I'll be one of several practitioners leading a one-day retreat in nature for women, led by Mallory McCrea, here in Canton. There will be poetry, somatics, reiki, writing, botanicals, and healthy meals. For more information on registering, see
Friday October 17th, 10:45 -Noon
I'll be reading with Robert Miltner and Molly Fisher in an event we call "We'll Always Have Canton: New Work." This event is not open to the public, but if you are at the conference, some hear us...even if you aren't from Canton.
Road Trip
After our successful tour of route 66 and NOLA in May, Paul & I are now heading out for his homeland of Central Massachusetts with visits to friends in Cohasset and Jamaica Plain. maybe get some haggis at The Haven.
Rennie & Rebus will be guarding the house and when we return will be appearing with us in Wooster for Archie Ambassador Day, marching with the band to the game with the Wooster mascot, Archie.
Lagniappe
If you don't know the term, it's a little gift or benefit, sometimes thrown in for free by shoppes in New Orleans. I've just had one of my poems made into a reed diffuser by poet-entrepreneur in India, Rochak Agarwal , at his business Urban Ganges. You can buy it here, but Trump's latest tariffs may be creating havoc with the ordering. I am ordering three this week and will let you know how it works out.
