Next Tuesday (January 12), we welcome Linda Annas Ferguson back to Poetry Hickory and Jim Clark to his first visit with us. As may know, Jim is a multi-talented poet whose readings frequently include music, and as you may remember, Linda was “accompanied” by a musician at her last reading as well. Open Mic readers for the night will be Glen Wigington, Brian Legore, and Tony Rankine. The festivities kick off at 6:30 with the Open Mic readers (10 minutes each), followed by our featured readers (20 minutes each). Linda and Jim will have copies of their books on hand for purchase and signing. The readings are free, but I encourage you to show your appreciation to our readers by buying their books and to our sponsors, Main Street Rag and Taste Full Beans Coffeehouse, by buying books and coffee.

I’m hoping to make it! I have a conflict with MFA thesis readings at Queens that same week. Some of my colleagues/friends are graduating. Hopefully I can make it!
