I can’t participate in or attend as many of the online poetry events as I’d like since I’m trying to be a full-time prof (newly online) and a full-time stay-at-home (homeschooling?) mom simultaneously, but I jumped at the chance to be a featured reader in the new THRUSH Virtual Reading Series on Zoom last Friday night. Thanks to Helen Vitoria for creating this salon-style reading! I started things off by sharing seven poems, and then I was enamored with the incredible poems by Sandy Marchetti, Sally Rosen Kindred, Dan Albergotti, Jennifer Colella Martelli, Rachel Patterson Moles, and Amanda Auerbach. What a life-giving experience! You can watch the whole reading on YouTube and subscribe to Helen Vitoria’s channel to catch more of these weekly THRUSH contributor readings.
