Virtual Poetry Reading: 25th Anniversary of Poetry Ink, Day 1

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84308329737?pwd=RjJUdCtJVXRySjlvMHdXakJRRzVmUT09

Meeting ID: 843 0832 9737 – Passcode: 678146

Moonstone began in 1981 when Larry Robin began to present writers at Robin’s Book Store, thousands of writers, poets, fiction, and non-fiction writers have read over the last 40 years. Poetry Ink started in 1996 as a benefit for the bookstore and has continued as our largest program, about 100 poets reading for six hours with an anthology that included those poets reading that year. This year is different, we have reached out to any poet who has ever read with us, and we are virtual. Our 25th annual Poetry Ink Anthology has 300 poets, some who are now famous and read here years ago and others who we just met. About half of the people who contribute to our anthologies are usually available to read, and I am never sure exactly who will show up. Six days of Poetry Ink, Monday we have from Abrams to Burke.

Not Everyone Will Be Reading.
