For almost half of Mignon Ariel King's features for Stone Soup, she has given attention to other poets that she's published. This year, I'm glad to not only have Mignon back after so long, but to have her featuring a brand new collection. Not only that, she's also released a call for submissions for her new Tell Tale Chapbooks. Take a look at her recent poem in Oddball Magazine, and plan to be in the audience this Monday.

Another Massachusetts Poetry Festival, Another Panel--"Stone Soup Presents: Oddball Magazine"
Stone Soup Presents Oddball Magazine
Friday, May 2, 2014, 3:30-4:30 p.m.
Hawthorne Hotel, Sophia Room
Salem Massachusetts
In 2013, the long-running Stone Soup poetry series joined forces with an eclectic poetry journal to provide voices to various uncollected voices and gather them under one supportive banner. The journal has since expanded to include regular columns and features that help to support and promote Stone Soup and other artistic efforts in the Boston area and beyond. Please join us for a reading from Oddball’s most noted and regular contributors, including former Cambridge Poet Populist Toni Bee, Stone Soup host and organizer Chad Parenteau, and Oddball Magazine founder Jason Wright.
Keep visiting the Massachusetts Poetry Festival website for more information on this event and others.

February 24: Jeff Savlon and all his Unimaginary Friends at Stone Soup
I love featuring poets from the north shore. I've come to dub their
representation the North Shore Invasion, and this Monday will be no
different. The Zig Poetry Open Mic in Salem has recently released two chapbooks through it's YesNo Press. Jeff Salvon is one of them, and his Foul-Mouthed Imaginary Friends will be available for sale when he features this Monday. Get there early and experience some new poets. Incidentally, Emily Rudofsky and her YesNo chapbook Ravenous, will be featured sometime in the summer. Many exciting things coming down the pipeline at Stone Soup.
Apologies
I apologize to Navah the Buddaphliii for not updating my blog or my website in time for her feature. Though I did post Facebook and the Stone Soup site, I pride myself on promoting the poet as much as possible (in some ways there's no such thing as over posting). The fact that her feature was so well attended and amazing is testament to her abilities and her following.
Apologies also to followers of this blog. I have had a lot happen to me today, and nothing I can talk about publicly. People can talk to me privately if they wish to know, as I may only make certain things public a year from now if ever.
I am picking up where I left off on my primary sites about two weeks ago. Don't look as I ungracefully hop back on the blogging horse.

February 3: Krysten Hill Returns to Stone Soup
I don't have the site fully updated yet, as things aren't finalized, but
I know enough already that we have the makings of a fantastic lineup
for the entire month. Please be there for the start of this lineup withKrysten Hill who last year was part of an amazing double feature hosted by Michael F. Gill. If you weren't there for that, chances are you've seen her a a number or big events, like Jade Sylvan's Kissing Oscar Wilde
opening party. If not, just take my word (and the word of anyone else
who's seen her) that you should make time to be in the seats this
Monday.
My New Column for Oddball Magazine
I keep wanting to have the headline to this read, "What Am I Thinking?" After a few months of boosting Oddball Magazine's
views, bringing in a ton of content, and supervising the creation of
three columns, it's time to start pulling my weight. Enter political
cartoonist George Panagooulos, who will now be collaborating on a
premise of words and pictures that's continuing to evolve but has
already appeared in a column called "The Last(ish) Word" as of this past
Tuesday. Check out our first subject, Chris Christie (who I genuinely
feel sorry for) by clicking here.

This Past Monday at Oddball Magazine
And back in 2012, Martin Willitts Jr, before his feature, had one of his poems performed by R. Wayne Nickerson. We caught it on film, and now it's on 3TV.

January 27: Here Comes Zachary Bos
Zachary Bos. Poet, editor, publisher, workshopper, feature at Stone Soup tonight. I'm sorry for the LATE post, as this weekend was frustrating. The whole month has been a disappointing beginning. At first, I gave myself a 13 month year and said after December I was going to my year on this month instead of December. Now I'm completely reneging on that idea. All this text is to once again prove that I'm the least intersting part of Stone Soup. Come tonight for the open mic and stay for the feature. You will not regret it.

Thanks to Samantha Milowsky for including me in the Winter 2014 issue of Amethyst Arsenic.
