There's the monthly Lit Poetry Workshop, Friday November 20, 7:30 at mac's backs. (1820 Coventry Road, in Cleveland Hts., if there's anybody here who doesn't know where Mac's is.) Bring about 20 copies of your poem.
--Most of the regular poetry events are on the first or the second x-day of the month (where x= Sun, Mon, Tues, etc.). The two exceptions are Lix 'n Kix, on a 3rd Tuesday, and the Lit workshop, every 3rd Friday.
(Lesson is, if you're starting a new event, put it late in the month!)
Thanks, Geoff! I've never been to that, but I've heard good things. Will have to check it out....
There's also a poetry event at Musica (Mocha Maiden) in Akron this Thursday, put on by a writer's group from Akron University. As much as I'd love to go hear Terry and Sammy read, Akron's closer, and that show will have lots of new voices for me to hear/recruit/solicit/tag-with-fliers. lol
Thanks, VX! Talk about a surfeit of riches!...
I hope to post a listing like this every week or two - and make it as comprehensive as possible.
Folks can send notice of their upcoming events to me at jc@crisischronicles.com. I sometimes get overwhelmed by the volume of e-mail I receive, so put POETRY EVENT in your subject line to improve the chances of me finding it in a timely fashion.
Even better, perhaps: if you send me an event invitation on Facebook, an e-mail won't be necessary.
