Hello Wordpressers!
Excitement builds as we near the morning of poetry at the Sunbury Poetry Fest! I hope all that read this will join us.
Some interesting tidbits-- Aug. 14th, at the crack of dawn Dave Bauman, myself and Marjorie Maddox wll join hosts Mark Lawrence and Mark Giesen for a wonderful interview on WKOK at 845am in the morning. We are looking forward to the opportunity to share poetry and our love of the arts.
The clock is ticking. . . I really need to put together my "set-list." From what mark said we only have 45 minutes or so to wow the crowd. If my math is right, with three of us, that equals almost 15 minutes each (please tell me you don't take what I say literally), so I want to be very sure what I am reading and in what order. Last readings at Faustina's Gallery and Priestly Chapel were more shoot from the hip. This, well, I'm going for calculated excellence. ;-)

Thank you, dear! I’m looking forward to it. A little nervous, but excited.
sounds awesome…have fun!!!
Thank you, Claudia!
You will rock, David…..with your talent and experience, people are in for a treat, wish i could be there, it all sounds soooooo great!
Aw, thank you, Vince. I wish you could be too. We are going to try to catch it on film on multiple cameras, so we’ll see how it turns out. The hard part (other than the early morning radio interview tomorrow!) is figuring out the set list.
Good luck! k.
Thank you!
That’ll be wonderful ! Hopefully everything goes smooth~ Blessings to ou.
Faithfully Deborah
Thank you, it’s off to radio interview number two this morning. We just got another one for Thursday. Eek. All this press, we should at least have an audience, I hope!
Maybe if your luck some people will show up… a few…
I mean if you’re lucky… oops.
You silly goose! Are you and your camera going to be there?
I’m cheering for you, Dave! Your show will be “excellence,” whether calculated or random.
I *would* wish you to “break a leg,” but after my recent reading experience (the one in which I fell *onto* the stage), I’m no longer saying that to people. In any case, I wish I could be there. I know it’s going to be wonderful!
Aw, thank you, Jennifer! It will help that I’ll be sandwiched in between Marjorie and Melanie! They are awesome.
And I will do my best to stay light on my feet.
Hope you are recovering well. 
Have you figured out where it is yet?
haha, yes, Melanie and I took a walk down there yesterday. It’s easy to find, right at the end of Chestnut street.
