Conversations in Poetry
In early 2025, I launched a series of Zoom conversations with my favorite poets to read our work to each other, using the theme of the reading as a loose guide for which poems we share. Interspersed with the readings, an informal conversation unfolds in response to the poems, with plenty of open time for participant questions and discussion.
Coming in September!
The wise and wonderful Heidi Rose Robbins will be joining me for September’s “Conversations in Poetry” event. Heidi is a poet, astrologer, celebrated speaker, host of the podcast “The Radiance Project,” and co-host of the “Chart Your Career” podcast with Ellen Fondiler, and author of . Her work centers on tapping into the mysterious and meaningful instructions embedded in astrology and poetry to encourage authentic, radiant expression of the self. During this conversation, which takes place Monday, September 28 at 7 pm Eastern on Zoom, we’ll be sharing poems around our theme “Make of this day an altar,” borrowed from from Heidi’s poem, “Altars.”
$10 suggested donation. If you are unable to donate at this time, simple select “Free” in the checkout. I will send an email under separate cover with the Zoom link.
