Join me and local poets this Saturday, June 3, at the Portsmouth Arts Guild for a special Hope & Gratitude Poetry Reading!

The event takes place from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Guild Gallery at 2679 East Main Road in Portsmouth. Eight local poets will be reading from our works, at least three from recently published collections. We’ll all have our works on hand for sale and signing; refreshments will be served.
