Friends, there's still time to get more literary merryment (or did we mean mayhem?) in before the bell tolls twelve and the New Year rings in. Enjoy, and warmest wishes of the season to you and yours!

P.S. Looking for something nice to read by the fire? Check out my recent interview of creative nonfiction writer Brenda Miller for the Stories on Stage Master Teachers Workshops! In fact, if you want to write with Brenda January 14-15, 2012, last I heard, there was still one open space. I will be there in workshop, and I can't wait!

Third Thursdays in the Sacramento Room
Thursday, December 15 at the Central Library
828 I Street, 12 Noon
Mary Zeppa and Lawrence Dinkins hosts
In the bleak midwinter,
(Christina Rosetti)
Let there be light.
(Genesis)
On December 15, let’s counter midwinter’s bleakness with poetic light. Bring your favorite poems (preferably by a writer other than yourself) which explore or celebrate the welcome phenomenon of light out of darkness. And/or which explore or celebrate one or more of December’s festivals of light (in this year’s chronological order): Chanukah, the winter solstice, Christmas, Kwanzaa. Cast your net wide. Think metaphorically as well as literally. Let your mind (and your senses) run free.
