Port Townsend’s premiere bimonthly open mic, Kaleidoscope, hosted by novelist Anna Quinn, will greet the holidays with memorable joy poems and prose. I will update you on the featured author.

I plan to read, “Joy is disguised” (The Journal of Expressive Writing), “The More Minutes I Find Prismatic, The Less Dark My Attic” (from Paddling the Sweet Spot Between Life and Death), and a memoir poem about going to work with my father when I was little, “Going to Work With Father Day.”

When you enter the building, place your name in the hat to be drawn at random to read. Five minute slots.
