Join us for a lovely evening on Wednesday in Norfolk!
I’m so excited to chat with Ravynn, especially after reading Love in 280 Characters or Less (which I HIGHLY recommend—even if it seems outside your usual genre!). See you there! ✨

This was such a beautiful experience! I look forward to finding my way back to Eureka Springs and The Writers' Colony at Dairy Hollow in the future!
Tonight we gather for the last Poetluck of the season, 6-8PM at The Writers’ Colony at Dairy Hollow. ✨ Featuring Alicia Swain, author of “Steel Slides and Yellow Walls.”
Bring a poem, a dish, or just yourself. See you tonight. It’s going to be a good one.
