king of 1999
Just wanted to let you know that I'm alive & well and pressing on in my photography. I have promised myself that every city I visit, I will scout out the photograpy happenings and show my work. Gives me an opportunity to practice ..... Well last nite I attended this club .. What an experience -- mostly young alternative writers, some good, some needing much work on their poetry -- performance, voice & writings, a few seasoned writers, and oh -- one older citizen spewled on about governmental issues, don't think anyone was really listening as one person shouted out "and what's your point" eeekkkkeee.... anyway I had a blast & meet a lady -- I'd say she'd fit right into my scene -- great performance & a new found friend here -- she schooled me on the happenings for this area for poetry readings... The word is that not many businesses are open to poetry readings & many places have shut down in the area leaving very little options for poets. I can only speak about this area & I will be blazing the trail for other sites for poets to read & I welcome any info from you all if you know of any other places or contacts. Not sure how long I will be here but I'm working it, poetry that is, as best I know how...and I add that I am truly blessed to have met people who believe in the art -- What a blessing to have experienced first hand the many talents & opportunities Roanoke has to offer each of us -- this was nothing like Roanoke -- trust me for a city as big as it is -- Jacksonville, we got it going on....good things come in small packages & small numbers -- not all the time is bigger better.... |
