Reading at the Morgan this Friday

My next reading is this Friday (7:30 p.m.) at The Morgan Conservatory (a wonderful venue) in the heart of Cleveland. But the best reasons for you to go will be a multi-media poetry presentation by Dan Smith and readings by (all the way from the Toledo area) Leonard Kress and the newly-named Poet Laureate of Cleveland Heights, Christine Howey, plus art, refreshments, books and community. Thanks to Christopher Bowen of Burning River for drawing together this soiree.
