St. Lawrence Area Poets

Ah, nothing much seems to be going on.  I'm trying to set up a reading at Jernabi's, maybe on Thursday night, July 8th.  Maybe.  If there's any interest, please let me know.  It's a small place, so even three readers would be enough.  So long as we don't scare away too many customers.  The Potsdam SummerFest is coming soon, but no one seems to know exactly when.  I'm waiting for the July Fourth Coast Entertainment Magazine for some accurate info. 

Really, nothing much happening.  There was some talk of a reading at TAUNY in Canton, but I've heard no follow-up on that.  I am planning a SLAP poetry newsletter for July, so if anyone has any amazing poems they want to share, send 'em on over.  I have enough, I think, but I'm always looking for new poets to include in this intermittent publication. 

On the personal side, I've had a few short nature type poems picked up by Bear Creek Haiku out in Colorado, & Nancy has had a few poems published in various national publications, Penwood being the most recent.  I'd like to know if any other Slappers have any success, so we can share your triumphs w/ our millions of online readers. 

Anyway, enjoy the rest of June.  See y'all next time.
