Jacob, Willard and Goby work together as a creative collective. Writing under the name Jacob Russell, they have published three chapbooks, many poems, and have four books of poetry searching for publishers. In recent years, their collective has been writing serial poems, interconnected, but in no particular order, or rather—ordered to the mood of the occasion—as will be the case at this reading.

 Paul Siegell is the author of Take Out Delivery, as well as wild life rifle fire, jambandbootleg and Poemergency Room. He is a senior editor at Painted Bride Quarterly and has contributed to American Poetry Review, Black Warrior Review, Rattle, and many other fine journals.
