Change of Venue for January 8th Reading!

My reading of RetroLove will still be on January 8th at 7:00 PM but will take place at the Brandywine Workshop, conveniently located at 728 South Broad St, not Fergie's Pub.  Nice spot although without the stale beer aroma.

Same Bat-time. Same Bat-channel.

See you there, perhaps!

We have a winner!

Thanks to all those who got out the vote for my haiku and those Philadelphians are quite good at getting out the vote. Enough said. All of you put me on top for the 2013 Haiku-Year-in-Review!  Here I am with the final broadside featuring my poem and three others plus art.

(By the way, the most orderly, civilized place in Philadelphia is people taking pictures in front of the LOVE statue.  Go try it some time.)

Now comes your part of the Broadsided Press experience.  
  1. Click here and download a copy of the completed broadside.  You can read more about the project (including some sassy observations from the poets) here.
  2. Print it out.
  3. Post it somewhere in your world.  Like your library or a bus shelter or the grocery store or a coffee shop or your office water cooler or your laundry room. 
  4. If you are so inclined, take a picture of where you post it, with you in it if you like, and send it to me or to Broadsided.
  5. Poetry in the streets in 2014!  Let's go people...

And if you are really in the poetry mood now, join me next Wednesday, January 8th at Brandywine Workshop, 728 South Broad Street (not Fergie's Pub as originally scheduled) in Philadelphia at 7:00 when I do a 15-minute set of my new poems, RetroLove! All the details are here.

Here's to a groovy, creative 2014!
