Scenes from Motherhood and The Muse

The Massachusetts Poetry Festival is done for another year. All that's left are the memories. I wasn't able to record the event, but thankfully Toni Bee, one of the panelists for last Sunday's "Motherhood and The Muse," wrote a paper on the event for one of her college classes.

I am humbled by her recap and asked if I could post it on my website. I also included photos and videos of Toni, DiDi Delgado and Rene Schwiesow reading at the panel. You can enjoy the highlights by clicking here.

Thank You, Ladies

Thanks so much to Toni Bee, Rene Schwiesow and DiDi Delgado for doing such a great job at yesterday's panel at this weekends Massachusetts Poetry Festival, "Motherhood and The Muse."

I couldn't get much audio or video of the panel, but I did get photos and video of people reading. The videos I'll see if I can post later. Here are some photos now.

No photo of DiDi reading, but at least there's one of her enjoying a post-reading victory drink.

Come See My Festival Program in Salem on May 7

The Massachusetts Poetry Festival will be taking place from Monday the fifth to Sunday the seventh. My program "Motherhood and The Muse: Poets on Passion and Parenting," will be taking place on Sunday May 7, from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., at the library of the Hawthorne Hotel. It will be amazing to spend time with friends and colleagues. Please join us for the weekend long event.

Succcess!

My proposal for the Massachusetts Poetry Festival was accepted. I'll be moderating the panel "Motherhood and The Muse: Poets on Passion and Parenting" this May. More will be announced once I ensure that everyone I recruited for the proposal is still in.

Progress

Managed to get two proposals submitted for next year's Massachusetts Poetry Festival. One involves heading a pane.. The other is me talking for fifty minutes. The second one was written very last minute, while the first one involving being part of a team was better put together. Such is my fate. I'll let you know more if it gets accepted.
