POEtry

Hello, POEts out there! No, that's not a typo, it's a callout for you fans of Edgar Allen Poe. You're invited to hear a dramatic reading of Poe's works by poet Patrick Kalahar:

Jenny Kalahar tells us more about the event:
"Tania, the bookshop owner, decorates for the Halloween season and has tea/cider/coffee and snacks. Pat reads The Raven by candlelight, dressed as Poe with his hair and mustache dyed, and then takes questions about Poe's writing and life. He's done this for a few years. Started off with maybe five people in the store to listen, to a full house the last three years. One girl came a couple of years ago who had Poe's face as a large tattoo on her thigh! Now, that's a Poe fan!"

They look pretty similar, don't they? Good job, Patrick, and good luck!

Brick Street Poetry Inc. is seeking submissions of original children’s poetry – poetry for children written by either adults or kids of any age. Poems submitted must have never been published anywhere before. Poets are permitted to submit a maximum of three poems. 
 
Each poem is to be contained to one page of a Microsoft Word document, prepared in Times New Roman 12-point font, with one- inch margins on all four sides. The poet’s contact information - name, address, email and phone number -  are to be placed at the top of each page. Preference will be given to poems that contain one or more of the following characters: a frog, a moose, bees and bears. However, poems without these characters will still be considered.

Picture
Deadline for submissions is Sept 22. Please email your submissions to: specialprojectsbsp@gmail.com  with your poems sent as attachments.

The poems selected will be published in a book before the end of 2016 and given to children who are patients in Indianapolis hospitals. The cost of publishing was made possible by a grant from the Nicholas H. Noyes, Jr., Memorial Foundation. 
 
Brick Street Poetry Inc. is a 501 (c) 3 not-for-profit based in Zionsville, Indiana that sponsors the monthly poetry series, Poetry on Brick Street, publishes the Tipton Poetry Journal, and hosts a wide variety of other poetry-related projects.
