SUMMARY:New Voices: Lex Bakey\, Matilda Bray\, Zillah Elcin\, Rachel Haas-Gutin\, Devon James\, Cooper Kidd\, Sam Lyons\, Kelly McGeehan\, Cecelia McKinney\, Isabella Piacentino\, Aimee Schwartz\, Hoa-Angel Tran\, Maya Workowski\, Darian Zenouzi\, with Krisann Janowitz
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Meeting ID: 867 1393 7746\, Passcode: 569861\, Phone: +1 646-876-9923 \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86713937746?pwd=V3BvYkpnYUJhK0lqZ3d0UUNpNEhZdz09 \nNew Voices feature poets under the age of 25 who have much to say and we believe they should be heard. We are excited to be a part of this community of young writers through readings and publications. \nI think it’s fair to say 2020 has been a weird year. Given the scale of COVID Moonstone was forced to close for over three months Meaning projects\, like New Voices\, were put on hold. \nWhile we’d like to say things are completely back to normal\, they’re not. Still\, we’re back and we’ve made some adjustments! \nThe reading on September 26 features some of the poets from 2020 in a zoom presentation with an eBook on our website. We are continuing to solicit poems and plan on having another event and book in December. Please joins us to hear these poets and send us your work. \nReaders may include (not everyone is reading) \nLex Bakey\, Matilda Bray\, Zillah Elcin\, Rachel Haas-Gutin\, Devon James\, Cooper Kidd\, Sam Lyons\, Kelly McGeehan\, Cecelia McKinney\, Isabella Piacentino\, Aimee Schwartz\, Hoa-Angel Tran\, Maya Workowski\, Darian Zenouzi \nKrisann Janowitz\, Host
