crest hill library

Pam asked me to write a poem for her future grandchildren. I adore this woman.

What does the great grandson of a serial killer, a ten-year old gamer, and a hoarder of words have in common? I heard their stories and wrote them poems at the Crest Hill Library.

If you are at an event, just come up to my booth. Choose from a number of story prompts or we can just talk. I love getting to know who and what you care about and why. You have 3 minutes to tell me your story, and I have 3 minutes to craft a poem for you. Sometimes it goes a little longer.

I get to practice my craft (risk humiliation), you get a poem, and we get to know each other. Doesn't that sound great? (It's actually freaking magical.) Of course, you're welcome to talk about or buy my books.

Thank you for the tips, too.
