Reading and workshop by Cecilia Woloch Thursday, November 21st and Friday, November 22nd, in Sylva and Cullowhee

Local poet Louise Morgan Runyon has asked me to announce that the poet Cecilia Woloch is giving a reading of poetry focused on labor and social justice with Louise on Friday night, November 22nd, at City Lights Books, at 6:00 p.m., and also leading a workshop on Thursday, November 21st, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at St. David’s Episcopal Church in Cullowhee, with a limit of ten participants.  The workshop will be called Our Lives Which Can Never Run Dry: Workshop for Writers in Short-Form Prose & Poetry.

Louise Morgan Runyon facilitates Mountain Word Writers’ Group at City Lights, and all of her books are available there (louiserunyonperformance.com ). Contact sylvawriters@gmail.com for more information about the workshop or the reading, or if you would like more information about the Mountain Word Writers’ Group.

 I’ve never met Cecilia myself, but Kay Byer was very fond of her.  She is indeed, as her bio says, an award-winning poet with fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Fulbright Foundation and with a national and international reputation and has just returned from two years teaching in Poland. I won't be able to meet her this time, either, alas, because I'll be at a conference, but I hope that some of you may.
