A perfect place for poetry |
Other featured readers include Sherman Alexie, Roberto Ascalon, Mark Doty, Tom Robbins (who knew he writes poetry), Rachel Rose, Emily Warn, Kelly Davio and Derek Sheffield.
And here's a secret: If you book now at the Country Inn in La Conner (walking distance to all the main venues) you will receive a deeply discounted festival price. You must call though; it's not available on their website.
May is a long time to wait for a poetry event, at least for me. Kelli Russell Agodon and I still have a few spots left in our Port Townsend event on Saturday, January 18th. Here is the information on the two workshops and how to sign up.

From Manuscript into Book: The Process Demystified:
