Poets and soon-to-be-poets, and lovers of fiction and writing general:
Check out SPC's website for info on tonight's poetry open mic--A Fermentation of Verse--at River City Brewing Company.
The event starts at at 7:00 at Downtown Plaza in Sacramento. Open mic for all who "wish to wax poetic about hops, kräusening, the wort and the mash." $2.50/pint all night!
Crawl out of your--ahem!--recovery in time to check out Stories on Stage this Friday night, featuring dramatic performances of the fiction of Lori Ostlund, author of The Bigness of the World, and of Davis based emerging writer Adam Russ.
By Monday, you'll be in top form to take in the Poems for All reading at SPC, featuring lots of local poets, all of whom have been published by Richard Hansen in his incredibly small, incredibly awesome Poems For All series! You've got to check these tiny books out. They are ultra portable and ultra powerful. See you there?
About Me
- Kate Asche
- I am a poet and essayist writing in the greater Sacramento area. I am also associate director of Arts, Humanities and Writing at UC Davis Extension, where I coordinate The Tomales Bay Workshops. I also teach private multi-genre creative writing workshops in the Amherst Writers and Artist method, in which I am a trained facilitator. I received my M.A. in English and Creative Writing from UC Davis. I won an Academy of American Poets award and two Elliot Gilbert Prizes in poetry. I have work forthcoming in Confrontation, and I was recently a finalist in The Missouri Review’s Fourth Annual Audio Contest; my recorded poem, “Know/Don’t Know,” will be published at The Missouri Review website later this year. When I am not writing or talking with writers, you can find me thinking through a new possibility at a Sacramento Poetry Center board meeting, drafting new creative writing with adults or teens at a local library, enjoying a performance at Stories on Stage, or chatting at Writers Who Wine.
