Possession Sound Writers

Two chances to catch up with me this week on the road with Traverse. We’ll be dodging (or perhaps stirring up) atmospheric rivers at the Jack Straw Cultural Center tonight, in a bright gathering of former fellows, each with brand new books. The event is hosted by laureate extraordinaire Kathleen Flenniken, and will also be simulcast / recorded (on Fb and on the JS YouTube site). Join the live studio audience or watch from the comfort of your underground bunker, as you wish! Round two is tomorrow: An Evening of Poetry at Village Books in Fairhaven, with friends and fellow scribblers Erin Malone and Jennifer Oakes. It’s been ages since I’ve had a chance to linger in Bellingham. Hope to see some old friends tonight and tomorrow, and raise a glass of Boundary Bay.
