⭐Top Shelf Pour
Visit Riffraff this week for the return of their monthly works in progress series to hear new work from 5 local poets!
🏠 Brew-It at Home
During this challenge, writers will be encouraged to write, read, and engage daily and share updates within an online community. The rules? Write something new every day. Read 4 pages of a craft writing book. Share work for others to enjoy. Engage with fellow writers in the Audacious Writers Circle. It starts 9/1 & is $10/month to join. Because when you invest in something, even a small amount, you’re more likely to show up, stay consistent, and finish strong.
🗳 Spill the Tea
I’m still trying to finalize the TBR list for the Poetry Book Club before I follow-up & propose the first 3 reading selections to Lucas at Riffraff next week.
Some titles I’m considering:
Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude by Ross Gay
Lighthead by Terrence Hayes
Depression & Other Magic Tricks by Sabrina Benaim
📤 Pour Your Heart Out
🏘 Pour-trait of a Neighbor
