Here in the southern tail of St. Mary's County, MD, it's mostly soybeans, crab-pots, and F-18s. I do get to play a surprising amount of music—I don't make any money, but I'm usually in front of a live audience at least once a week. Poetry's another story. Lucille Clifton's at St. Mary's College (and I've got a library card there which lets me remotely access Project Muse from my apartment), but I see the readings listed at, say, Silliman's Blog, and I despair.
Until this weekend:
Women in the Avant-Garde
a discussion & poetry reading
with Laura Elrick, Heather Fuller, Carol Mirakove,
Kristin Prevallet, & Deborah Richards
Friday, November 14
at St. Mary's College of Maryland
I don't know any of their work, but I'm taking off from my work to hear the lunch time discussion and missing one of my favorite local bands for the reading. Any tips from folks who are familiar with these poets?
