I’ll tell you the Chad News First
Above is a picture on Saturday before Saint Patrick’s Day. It was warmer then than it is now one day after Spring officially started. Cold snap this weekend. This is fine.
A lot of nothing going on this week. Stuff is happening, but it’s all happening either tonight or tomorrow or later next week. let’s get to what I have.
Stone Soup Poetry
Thanks for coming to Don Kingfisher Campbell’s reading Read the latest Stone Soup Croutons poem, “When All Else Fails, Have Pie.”
Tonight is another all-open mic. Next week, we close out April with Linda Carney-Goodrich (bio coming).
Oddball Magazine
Click here to read poetry byCassie McCoy, Roland Park and Mary Leary with excellent visual art by Claudio Parentela, Tybee Maitri and Luis Lázaro Tijerina.
We got an extra dose of nonfiction thanks to Donald Krieger (with nice art by Richard Spisak) and Kate Stark’s entry for Oddball Stories. Our cartoonists Geoffrey Fallon (“The Secrets of Skinny People”) and Anne Skove (“She Who Laughs Lasts”) continue.
Jason Wrights started our poet columnists off strong with his weekly Jagged Thought. On Thursday we’ll have James Van Looy (It’s All One Thing), Janet Cormier (Bamboozled No More! ) and Bruce Wise (Wise Words).
