THE POETS’ HAVEN CONTINUES!
Monday, Oct 26, 2020 06:30 PM
We have officially launched our 2020/2021 Poets’ Haven and are looking forward to continuing with our “Haven From Home” theme. We will once again be gathering safely via Zoom on Monday, October 26. The format for the evening will be open mic.
Our readings will be happening every two weeks this year, with a slightly different format. The time limit for our four featured readers will be eight minutes, followed by our usual two-minute open mic. We will share more information on how to sign up for reading slots and mic host assistance in the near future.
If you have any questions or concerns, are having trouble joining us that night, or if you know anyone who would like to join our online reading nights and is not a Stroll member please email us at strollquestions@gmail.com.
Anthology Distribution
Hello Strollers,
If you’ve been following our attempts to get the Stroll of Poets Anthology 2020 into the hands of as many members as possible, you’ll know we had two very successful Distribution Days—one on August 15 and one on October 3. However, a number of members have still not received the complementary copy that is one of the perks of Stroll membership.
We need to hear from you if you want to receive your copy of the 2020 anthology. The Board has set a deadline of October 24, 2020, for you to let us know.
If you would like a copy, please contact us at strollantho@writersguild.ab.ca. Arrangements will be made either to mail your copy to you or for you to pick it up at the location disclosed when you contact us via this email.
After October 24, any remaining copies will be released for sale to those who wanted additional copies but were unable to get them due to high demand.
The Poets’ Haven Returns!
The Stroll of Poets is pleased to announce the launch of our 2020/2021 Poets’ Haven reading series. The theme of the launch for our 30th year is “Haven From Home.” We will be communing this season from the comfort of our homes, sharing the poetry that weaves us together via Zoom.
Our readings will be happening every two weeks this year, with our usual format of featured readers and open mic. We will share more information on how to sign up for reading slots and mic host assistance in the near future. To start our year, we’re looking forward to bringing you two evenings of open mic readings (October 12 and 26).
