Comfort and Joy

Lovely reading at Woman Made Gallery today, contributors to Solace in So Many Words, edited by Ellen Wade Beals.  Taped by Kurt Eric Heintz for Chicago Amplified, WBEZ, so you can eventually hear/stream it. My little group of Normal poets so enjoyed the poems and stories they heard and the art all around. I read an excerpt from my essay "The Solace of Reading..." and here is a book tree from Half Price Blog.  And to all...a good night!

  2. Jim, thank you for visiting, and I clicked on your amazing blog! Wow.

    I love this tree, which is out there being shared on Facebook, where I found it, clicked it, and voila! Don't know who first stacked it up, but, indeed, genius!!

  3. Glad to hear the reading went well.

    The image of the Book Tree has been making the rounds, especially among writers. I'm seeing it everywhere.

  4. I do love the book tree, Maureen. And its irony, too. Books made from trees...make a tree!

  5. Congrats on the successful reading! Do share it, please.

    Don't forget that Columbus is full of venues that would love to host you as a reader anytime you wish :). And are in town, of course (the harder part).

  6. Thanks, Hannah! I am indeed likely to turn up in Columbus, probably in August 2012. But I will let you know in advance in hopes of setting something up!
