COMING EVENTS

Much excitement here in Mosherland at the moment, as A Muster of Melodious Musings (2025 - Metaphysical Fox Press) has hit the streets! The book made its public debut on March 13 during the open mic portion of the monthly Pour Me A Poem reading series in Mansfield, MA - my poetry home base.

In addition to various other open mic events, I'm lining up some feature reading spots in the next few months, where I'll be reading more from Muster, as well as whatever else feels right at the moment. There will be copies of the book for sale at all these events!

Here's what's on the horizon

September 13 - 6pm - Opening reception for Poetic Visions, an exhibit of visual art inspired by poetry...including one of my poems, "Raymond Carver's Toaster"! Held at the True Grit Art Gallery in Middleboro MA, the event will feature readings of the five chosen poems by the poets, with the inspired artwork on display. The art and the poems will remain on display for two weeks, with a closing reception on September 27 at 2pm.

October 12 - 1pm - Visual Inverse, an ekphrastic afternoon - join me and over 20 other poets as we read poems inspired by art from the annual juried show at the Plymouth Center for the Arts, in downtown Plymouth MA. Last year's event was an absolute joy, and this year promises to be even better.
