August 5, 7-11pm. South First Fridays Art Walk & Street Market. San Jose Downtown Association features “A Few Light Poems,” an outdoor public display of poetry videos produced by David Perez, including my poem, “Lost Sonnet.” Woo-hoo!
Look for them after dark at the corner of First Street and San Salvador.
Join me in Lisbon, Portugal this summer 2015 as part of the Disquiet International Literary Program, “the very best program of its type in the world,” according to George Saunders, 2012 guest writer.
I’m leading a two-week long cross-genre Writing Workshop in which we will create and workshop new pieces written in response to the art, music, monuments, and experiences we encounter in Lisbon. Our focus will be on short forms, whether they be lyric essay, prose poem, flash fiction or happy combinations. Are the boundaries distinct? Are they even important?
Please feel free to contact me below with any questions. Check the Disquiet website for deadlines and past program info. I can offer a few tuition discounts. I hope this opportunity works for you. I can promise you an unforgettable experience.
