August Writer’s Night – A Conversation with Danny Rosen: some things I’ve been thinking about poetry (and a few thoughts on publishing)
August 6 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Free
“I will discuss how my approaches to poetry have evolved over the years. In addition to my own work, some of the poets whose work I will cite include Robinson Jeffers, Wendy Videlock, Jack Mueller, and Clark Coolidge. In the poetry I am drawn to, the use of language is as important if not more so than the subject or the feelings expressed. I will also speak briefly on the vagaries and possibilities of publishing in the modern world.”
All Writer’s Night events are held at the Art Center in Grand Junciton, 7th and Orchard.
