Anouncements and Reminders

In class, we discussed having the final reading for class on Thursday, May 7, 7-9 PM.  Russ and Whitney: PLEASE REPLY IMMEDIATELY IF THIS DATE/TIME IS BAD FOR YOU.

Your final poetry portfolio will be due at the reading, so please bring it with you.  Also, remember to include a cover letter to a journal that you submitted poetry to.  Time to send something out into the world! (And you are ready for it, trust me).

For our last class meeting (boo hoo), please read Neruda, Residence on Earth, and Albiach, A Geometry.  We’ll discuss the global reach of innovative verse and discuss what impact national identity might have on the writing of experimental poetry, if any.

Other important upcoming events:

This Thursday, April 16, Danielle is having an Etude Party at her place(USA South #1817 behind John Mabee Hall and parallel and closest to Delaware), so if you’ve fallen behind on your assignments, this is a peer-pressurey way to catch up.  Please drop her a line for details  <d.z.matheny@gmail.com>.

Saturday, April 25, OGEW is having a meeting at my house at 5:00 PM.  The festivities will include a reading by Caleb Puckett, who will be leaving Tulsa for Kansas in May.  Come wish him a fond farewell, have some food and drink, write some poetry, and talk shop.  

TU’s literary magazine, Stylus, is having a reading from it’s new edition (which will be available for purchase) May 3, 7:00 PM. Claire Damn Edwards will provide more details henceforth.
