Upcoming Reading!
Long story short, after suffering with the flu in mid-January, I came down with bronchitis, and spent five weeks of my life coughing piteously and avoiding public, in-person events.
At long last, THAT is over, and my poetry reading celebrating publication of The Pear Tree: elegy for a farm at
Maplewood Presbyterian Church has been rescheduled for next Sunday, March 10.
10:00 service (attendance not required)
11:15 reading — with piano accompaniment courtesy of the incomparable David Little.
Maplewood Presbyterian Church
19523 84th Ave W
Edmonds, WA 98026
The church is on 196th, a main road leading from highway 99 down to Edmonds and the waterfront. The reading will be in the social hall — tons of room, and treats, too — AND Michelle Bear, the artist, will be there selling books from Edmonds Bookshop. If you are able to break free from your exciting late-winter whirl of events (not illness or doldrums, I hope), I’d love to see you there.
Thank you for the gift of your poems. I will be there to hear you read them. 🌝
