I am excited to be invited to be the featured reader and to help celebrate area writing, freedom, and diversity on February 10, 2024, at Mr. Smith’s Coffeehouse (https://mrsmithscoffee.com/), 140 Columbus Avenue, Sandusky, Ohio, beginning at 2:00 PM.
This reading promises to be more edgy and show more of my side as a quiet activist and queer Appalachian.
My reading will be followed by an open mic.
Please come and help support the area’s art of writing, freedom, diversity, and the Firelands Writing Center.
